How?

The whole point of WEI is that the site can choose to block any combination of browser and OS they see fit, in a reliable way (currently, browsers can freely lie). CURL and friends will almost immediately be branded as bots and banned - that's the stated objective.
How?
The page must first load, then it requests an attestation using js and sends it back to the server for further use (like a recaptcha token).
So for something like curl it could be no change.
