- lmm 5y agoSure, and then you've got a cat-and-mouse game with all the other ways that sites can fingerprint you.
- dreamcompiler 5y agoNope. Because your IP address is not one of Google's. This trick worked years ago but not today.

- eminence32 5y agoI'm pretty sure that CGP instances don't allocate IP addresses from the same range as google crawlers. See also: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/crawling/verifying-googlebot https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/crawling/...
