Internet marketers can misuse this to send lot of automated requests instead of paying for API access.

Lol, what?

Anyone can spoof UA…

  • Standard Google page can use JS and WASM to fingerprint device and detect bots. No-JS page cannot detect bots so it makes sense to shut it down to prevent using it for bot detection bypass.

    • That is besides the point.

      I can spoof UA today with lynx, curl or what ever that isnt executing js.

      See topic.
