They appear to have started blocked user agents matching "lwp-trivial/1.41".
So anyone know of a site where we can comply with the Terms of Use in the
next week or so?
Yes changing the user agent works, simply switching away from LWP::Simple
works. I'm not really willing to deliberately circumvent their blocking even
if it is simple and untargeted.
