Choose "spoofed" useragent string and deploy it. #10

efronbs commented 7 years ago

Currently I am setting the user agent to my default one. I need to research about useragent spoofing so I can make a more intelligent user agent spoof.

One option is to user the generator's useragent. Currently I have the user agent hardcoded, but feasibly I could wait for a web request to go off (or even possibly send one off myself), intercept it, and grab the user agent from there.

Here's a list of common user agents: http://www.browser-info.net/useragents#most-popular-user-agents

Maybe the most common chrome useragent, or perhaps you could add a checkbox to enable/disable UA spoofing?

I chose a UA that looks relatively modern, I think I am going to stack with that for a while, but may come back if I feel like I need to.

As for a checkbox, I might, but I would like to have core features in first, maybe finals week.

What UA did you choose? Will you implement it? If so, lets make this bug about putting it into code.
