Yeah I tend to agree here... It really seems like none of the server's business what agent I'm using.

Yup. It's none of their business. They can't discriminate against us if they don't know anything about us.

  • Can't trust you either. Are you a bot? Well it's good to assume you are by default, since it's the majority of internet traffic anyway. And for your privacy, you're not exactly forthcoming with data to now prove otherwise.

    So sorry, until you pay with a unique individual bank account to prove identity, you can't post on future social media sites. You are a bot after all.

    • Even if I was a bot, what of it? Your site should serve bots just as well as it serves humans. Only people who care about that are those who want to monetize our eyeballs by selling our attention to the highest bidder.

      If it's costing you money, have your HTTP server return 402 Payment Required instead of the free page. That's how it should be.
