@foosel that's the genuine "fix" for a reported security problem against some of their devices at the time, yes indeed

So I assume that Curl can now present different User-Agent values as needed (assuming it didn't before, of course)?

Which given I very rarely use Curl is probably a very stupid question but give I could think of that as a potential issue/solution shows how monumentally ridiculous that bug fix really is 🫤🤦‍♂️

@simonzerafa @bagder @foosel It can indeed, there's a specific arg or you can use the generic `-H "header-name: header-value"` form.
Those have been a thing as long as I've been using curl 👍🏻.

Even good old wget does it. I've used -U MSIE more times than I can remember. It also has a --header option.
