chrome exposes when it does this to the website. thats why if you want to scrape websites making it hard you use a forked firefox made for that.
id dont scrape for profit but for hobby projects. and some of websites them are annoying.

You can detect any debugger attached to any browser running V8 with:
let cdp = false;
const orig = Error.prepareStackTrace;
Error.prepareStackTrace = function () {
cdp = true;
return orig;
};
console.log(new Error(''));
// cdp === true → a debugger/automation client has the Runtime domain enabled
Chrome has this architectural problem where the webpage can see what extensions you have installed. United could just refuse to run if you have that installed.
