Thank you I see so you pay for the google cloud from donations?

I saw that they publicly state that unverified accounts get 1000 per day.

I guess the days of asking for even a measly 10000 are over?

I saw recent SO threads stating it could still be done, with a credit card, but I also saw a lot of posts about being denied.
I thought they asked for way to much.

If I decide to scrape the info using duckduckgo, google, and bing interchangeably, lets say i divide into 15000 for each, is there a possibility of them blacklisting me, blacklisting my MAC address and HWID?
I honestly can't tell from their robots.txt what is and isn't permitted.
