I just got a user agent switcher and I wanted to test it. I opened up firefox in private window and went to a website where I can test it and make sure it says chrome windows 10. it seemed to work. However, when I then tried to sign in to gmail while the user agent switcher was still on, it said that my browser is not secure so it will not let me log in. 

To make this clear, it detected this during the log in phase. I typed in my email and before I could even give google my password, it gave the warning with no way to proceed.

 

How did they do that?
