No, it is not true. The presence of "&" in a website's URL is not overlooked while scraping its content. In fact, it is a crucial part of the URL structure that helps to differentiate between different parameters and values. Failing to account for "&" can lead to incorrect data extraction or even errors in the scraping process. Therefore, it is important for web scrapers to handle "&" appropriately while scraping data from a website.
