I don't see this point anywhere in this discussion, but what speaks against spoofing it?

For real can't we just fork a browser to fake WEI?

It runs server-side, not on your browser. That said yes, I do think spoofing it server-side will eventually be how we get past this.

I don't know how this works, but in simple terms, when the server asks the Infos from the browser, can't the browser just lie? I don't understand why this is such a big deal, or am I missing something?
