How easy is it to detect that this is automation as opposed to a real user? I suppose probably pretty easy, so not sure if it is useful if I want to automate the web for things I do every day as I would really be running the risk of turning off access to those things if they determined I am automating them.


This is a wrapper on top of Selenium, so unless the library implements additional techniques to improve stealth, it's on par with Selenium's detectability (which as you pointed out can be detected easily enough)
