Good point. The anti-bot patches here (via Patchright) are about preventing the browser from being detected as automated — things like CDP leak fixes so Cloudflare doesn't block you mid-session. It's not about bypassing access restrictions.

Our main use case is retail price monitoring — comparing publicly listed product prices across e-commerce sites, which is pretty standard in the industry. But fair point, we should make that clearer in the README.
