"Some web services therefore use the TLS handshake to fingerprint which HTTP client is accessing them. Notably, some bot protection platforms use this to identify curl and block it."

As a user of non-browser clients (not curl though) I have not run into this in the wild.^1

Anyone have an example of a site that blocks non-browser clients based on TLS fingerprint.

1. As far as I know. The only site I know of today that is blocking non-browser clients appears to be www.startpage.com. Perhaps this is the heuristic they are using. More likely it is something simpler I have not figured out yet.
