Naver has barred unauthorised mass collection of posts and comments from its Cafe community service and banned reposting or repackaging the material on external sites without consent. It said it has asked businesses already using Cafe data to stop collecting and delete it, and will consider legal action if rights violations are confirmed. Naver is also revising terms for its developer search API, restricting it to displaying Naver search results and prohibiting use for AI training, answer generation, resale, ads or other profit-making activities.

A reporter tested OpenClaw, an open-source AI agent framework that runs in a user’s local computer environment and can integrate with Telegram, Slack and Discord. While installation was straightforward, connecting AI models and handling API keys caused repeated errors, rate limits and payment issues. After hours of setup, the agent produced inconsistent news-monitoring outputs and struggled with browser automation due to token limits. The experience suggested it remains difficult for non-developers to use effectively.
