Not sure if you meant it that way, but this comes across as a bit hostile. Do you care to share some specific rules you think are being violated?
replyThere are gazillion compliance laws, etc, but basic copyright laws commonly cover these things.

Database copyright isn't really a thing in the US.
replyIt's RentCast (rentcast.io) listings API and parcel boundaries come from state/county GIS services and Realie (realie.ai). Fair question on the rules: I'm not a broker or MLS member, so NAR/MLS rules don't bind me directly; I license the listings through RentCast's API under terms that allow displaying them, and how they source the data is on their side. I also left agent phone numbers and emails out of the downloads on purpose so the site can't be used to build contact lists. If anyone from an MLS sees a problem with a specific listing, I'd genuinely like to hear about it: contact@unfenced.land
