Anomalies

Where a client's self-declaration disagrees with what its connection actually proved at the wire. A User-Agent is a claim anyone can set; the TLS, TCP, and HTTP/2 fingerprints below are measured from the bytes. Disagreement is the classic signal of automation dressed as a browser — though VPNs, proxies, privacy tools, and shared fingerprints produce honest mismatches too, so these are leads, not verdicts. Each check scans every co-observed pairing on record (showing one check, capped at 500 rows).

Bot claim vs. operator-published verification

A User-Agent declaring a major bot — a search or AI crawler or a user-triggered fetcher — observed from an IP outside the ranges that operator publishes for it, or inside a different operator's ranges, and confirmed by no other channel the operator publishes. Unlike the checks above, this is not a wire-vs-claim contradiction: it is the self-declared identity against the operator's own published verification channels — its crawler IP list and, where the operator documents one, forward-confirmed reverse DNS; either channel alone identifies. An IP no channel vouches for, arriving under a bot's name, is almost always an impersonator — scrapers spoof crawlers to dodge rate limits and earn crawler treatment. One exception is worded on its rows: operators that publish only their network rather than crawler ranges (Meta) — an outside-network claim there is an unverified anomaly, not proof of spoofing, unless the IP sits inside another operator's published crawler range. Claims one channel confirms while the other denies are identified, listed as publication disagreements on the operator's page, not here; the fully consistent side appears as identified on the fingerprint page.
