It is, but only when a big corp isn't doing it. X is allowed to deny you service without an account and Reddit is allowed to deny you service without uploading your personal documents to Persona.

what about when big companies drown the web with crawling activity, forcing webmasters to implement fingerprinting and thus massively delaying actual users from accessing webpages that would otherwise load instantly?
