Brave is my preferred browser. Could you please ensure that the AI-scraper
defense does not block it?
FYI: The HTTP_USER_AGENT string is the following:
Brave:
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux, Android 11) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko)
Chrome/91.0.4472.124 Mobile Safari/537.36
Chrome:
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux, Android 10; K) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko)
Chrome/142.0.0.0 Mobile Safari/537.36
This is probably the same problem I was having with Falkon: while it
actually *does* have security fixes backported, it claims to be an older
version of Chrome.
Why not add a "Falkon" or "Brave" token to the User-Agent string and
honestly report what it actually is, you might ask? Because then
CloudFlare denies service no matter how many CAPTCHAs you solve...
