I don't understand this statement. > And that company detected it and made a message. No. Google did not detect that Midori is identifying itself as Chrome. Google detected that the version of Chrome being used to access the website is old. As it happens, there is no "Chrome", only Midori. > If it (by default at least) identified as itself, then there would be no > problem. I agree that Midori perhaps could identify as itself, but I don't know why the upstream developers decided to identify as another browser, so I cannot really criticize this without knowing. But don't mistake me: I am not happy to use a browser that identifies itself as a proprietary program, so I will contact the Midori developers and ask them about this. > You really can't blame that company, nor the user...

Then they would have to sue a lot of people, even their some of their own users who made plugins for Chrome in order to make it possible to change the User-Agent there as well.
