error code: 1010

Hi

this comes from cloudflare:
Error code 1010 from Cloudflare indicates the website owner has implemented a blocklist for specific browser signatures, and your web client is on that list. That might happen when using common tools, like Selenium headless browser, since those share fingerprints.

never experienced that, can you try from different IP maybe ?
