Have you tried to change your user-agent?
You can do it with Chameleon.
Wow, Chameleon worked perfectly!! I put ticketmaster.com in the whitelist, profile with Chrome, and boom, it loaded. I tried re-enabling uBlockOrigin and Privacy Badger and still works.
Troubleshooting mode didn't work so it's very weird, I don't know what kind of checks this website is making. Anyways thanks for the help!
Huh, another site that is intentionally designed to blacklist Firefox? If so I wonder what's in it for Ticketmaster. Seems to me as a company driven by sales, you'd want every avenue possible available to make those sales, including all major internet browsers.
Edit: I wonder if it's worth sending Ticketmaster a support request over it. If it's not intentional it may just be a bug that could be resolved.
It works on OPs work laptop, also on ff. So it's more likely that some combination of parameters which include the browser triggered their anti-bot protection, perhaps due to actual botting activity from a source with similar parameters.
I don't think so. I think they won't let you log in with Firefox and ublock origin because they want to load their bullshit tracking script, which that combination blocks.
