In Safari, click the “Safari” menu and then the “Preferences” command. We’ll cover Safari here, as it’s the most used browser on Mac, but if you use another browser, you can read our guide for Chrome, Edge, and Firefox. There’s no crazy hacking involved, as it’s a feature built into most modern browsers. You can also fake what operating system you’re running if the site demands Windows-only clients. Sending a spoofed user agent will cause the website to think that you’re using a different browser without having to download a new one and switch over.
So the solution is to fake your user agent. This is how sites decide whether to serve you a mobile or desktop version of the site, and this is also what most sites with browser restrictions use to lock you out of viewing them. The way a website knows what browser you’re using is by using a value called the “user agent”-a piece of data that’s sent with every request you make to a website, telling the server what browser and operating system you’re using.
