Full Title or Meme

The best User Agent on an internet connected device is a User Trusted Browser to work only in the user's best interests.

Context

Problems

  • The User Agent string provided by the browser in the HTTP header is used now simply to give the web server information on what sort of HTML it can process. It is routinely spoofed and has no security capability what-so-ever.

Solutions

The following proposals are being evaluated:

  • New browser based on Blink
  • Align with some existing browser that want to be considered the best
  • Browser extension
  • Read evefy img on the page to see if it should be considered a trustmark
  • New element, tag on img (attribute or method)
