I wonder if we're going to see JS runtime fingerprinting attempt from google now

I doubt it'd be difficult for Google to detect if the client is a browser or not. They already need to check for signals of abnormal use to detect things like clickfarms and ad scams.

> detect if the client is a browser

User agents are like journalists: there's no such thing as pretending to be one.

If someone writes their own client and says, "This is a browser", then it is one.

Have they not done this for years and years already?
