changes useragent to Chrome. Everything works perfectly on the site
Hmm. Interesting.
This is actually exactly how user agents evolved.
Chrome pretends to be safari.
IE pretends to be Netscape.
Safari pretends to be Firefox.
All popular browsers pretend to be at least one other browser for compatibility.

So it’s kind of like back in the Netscape days.
Men are men, women are men, boys are men, and little girls are FBI agents.
