If I had a dollar for every time someone has mentioned that under this post...
Yes I can do that, in fact it doesn't even stop me using it and it works fine. But you're missing the point. The point is they claim that their website is OS-dependent when they're really just lazy-asses
Are they even lazy though? As far as I know that check and block has to be implemented. If they were lazy it would just work.
Does it depend on a binary or is it really a website requiring an operating system?
And what happens if you just put Windows into the useragent?
