There’s no crazy hacking involved, as it’s a feature built into most modern browsers. You can also fake what operating system you’re running if the site demands Windows-only clients. Sending a spoofed user agent will cause the website to think that you’re using a different browser without having to download a new one and switch over. So the solution is to fake your user agent. This is how sites decide whether to serve you a mobile or desktop version of the site, and this is also what most sites with browser restrictions use to lock you out of viewing them. The way a website knows what browser you’re using is by using a value called the “user agent”-a piece of data that’s sent with every request you make to a website, telling the server what browser and operating system you’re using.
