I've had a similar experience but with IBM Cloud.

So, I've started using LibreFox recently. Signed up for IBM Cloud after verifying my credit card and lo and behold, an account suspension letter was delivered after an hour. I guess it has something to do with their algorithm triggering accounts signed up using privacy focused browsers.

What's the user agent for LibreFox?

Pretty sure Librewolf sets the same user agent that the Tor browser uses in its librewolf.cfg and locks the setting.
