I really wish the Internet Archive could stop lying in their HTTP User-Agent headers. To be specific, I wish they could stop claiming to be either ancient versions of browsers or modern versions of browsers that are different from the browser engines they're actually using. It's hurting their ability to, you know, archive stuff, because these days such mismatches look a lot like bad crawlers.
