The catch to know
While the data is accessible, it is important to remember that the quality of the information is not uniform across the entire platform. Because datasets come from different sources, the level of detail and the frequency at which they are updated can vary wildly. You should always verify the reliability and the freshness of a specific dataset before relying on it for critical analysis or production-level software.
