So things like curl or lynx would be illegal eh? Good luck enforcing those.
What about HTTP client libraries for every computer language? Even if they went as far as to ban curl and lynx, with many languages you could whip up an HTTP client to pull whatever content you need in five minutes. This might be totally unenforceable at that level as people could modify the library or write code themselves.
