When a store is selling 20 pairs of a shoe, they will literally look at how the person who bough the pair did their web execution. Using a something like python requests is faster sure, but most of the time looking more "real" is more important. I've written a few of these and do both depending on the company (size etc.), their website, their security etc. Some of these companies have gone as far as setting up a web game people play and the highest scores get a pair of the shoe (slamjamsocialism).
- darksim905 9y agoCan you go into more detail about this game? First I've heard of it, and it clearly isn't a popular choice as opposed to say, a splash screen or other methods of deterring bots.
- xzel 9y agoYeah. At first is was pong. People figure out how to send fake scores really easily, myself included. It was just an packed js file and you could deobfuscate it, pull in the score generating js and send fake http response to their server. This time, sjs did some type of side scrolled with a dinosaur jumping over buildings. Link here: http://www.slamjamsocialism.com/arcad-ism/ http://www.slamjamsocialism.com/arcad-ism/
