Get rid of unnecessary information and improve security
How to change your browser's user agent without installing extensions
The user-agent string is a little-known string of information that has a huge impact on how browsers see the web. We recently discussed the benefits of a user-agent switcher and how it can improve your browsing experience.
However, switching your browser’s user agent no longer requires you to install third-party software like extensions. In recent years, all major browsers have started including such functionality as part of their developer console or in standard menus.
Although it is uncommon, there is a chance that browser extensions can be hijacked for malicious purposes, which can pose a risk to your security. They can also add unnecessary bloat to the browser and ultimately slow it down.
