Yes but without JS (or wasm), the meta refresh option can't actually do any work, right? I mean, parsing a meta refresh tag is not exactly rocket science... aren't most scrapers already headless browsers anyway? I know I have seen several big proxy providers offering that as a service to defeat cloudflare.
