Yes, it's just a ToS violation at present. Those are legally binding though, despite the common adage. What that really translates to here though, anyone's guess.

Anthropic's own copyright infringement could apparently be forgiven for 1.5B USD after all, so maybe there's a price that breaking the distillation clause for is acceptable too. Or some other arrangement.

But surely at least one of the websites Anthropic scraped to make Claude had a ToS forbidding automatic access?

Why is Anthropic's ToS any more binding than that of a rabidly-anti-ai literature blog with 50 readers?
