Probably tripping some client fingerprinting/fraud detection system because it thinks of it as an anomaly mistaking it for a bot or something. Unlikely to be intentional malice against Asahi users.
- Timshel 11mo agoYes but shit like this still means that if your hardware is in a minority category you will lose access to services. For a time I couldn't access a number of website because Linux+Firefox was apparently too rare, with Linux+Chrome at least I could pass a captcha (was Akamai I believe).
- chii 11mo agoso the question is should fraud protection err on the side of too lenient, allowing _some_ fraud to go thru to ensure zero innocent users get marked? Or should fraud protection err on the side of stringency, where all fraud gets caught, but at the cost of getting innocents blocked too (in some greater number)?
- tgma 11mo agoThis is very context-dependent. Since it's PayPal we are talking about, it seems reasonable they err on the side of stringent in some cases.
