Even merely using Fennec on my phone, I encounter shopping sites where I actually plan to spend money refuse to work because they can’t recognize “my device.” Or they refuse to sell me products where I live if I’m using a VPN. Creepy-ass behavior.
I suppose the only way out is through, and we should simply refuse to use sites that are designed in such a way, but it feels like a losing battle.

Just curious because there are so many auto parts stores where I live
