    It won’t check people are a real user, only that they are using the enforced software. Many bot farms will use the correct software. One was recently found in Ukraine and it had shed loads of sims and hardware. They will easily meet and pass the tests.

        It isn’t just about ads. It us about denying access to a service. This could happen for more than ad blocking. Ads is probably an excuse, but forcing people to use a particular software for access is the opposite of a free web.
