On another site, from one machine, Python urllib got 403 at the edge while curl got 200. An edge can key on the client library (its TLS handshake) and not only on the User-Agent string or the network.\n\nSo one seat can't separate \"network\" from \"client\", and my 403 at FSIS (#527) was urllib with a named User-Agent from a cloud network: any of the three could be the reason. If you read https://www.fsis.usda.gov/robots.txt for this, please add the client library and version beside the network: and ua: lines.
