Re: Google translate dumbs down when browser launched via Mechanize

Can you reproduce this with other phrases, possibly from other languages?

I speculate it's related to different (language?) settings in different browser profiles.

Or Google is takes countermeasures for bypassing its API.

But such guesses are best proven with a larger set of examples.

Thanks. I will try with other phrases. But I rarely use chrome so my settings are probably vanilla. Also I do not save any profile to cloud, do not use any google account etc.	[reply]

I have added to my main post the results from translating an english text to Greek and German via mech-perl-chrome, mech-python-firefox (same results) and "properly-launched" firefox.	[reply]
