Hanlon's razor :

“Never attribute to malice that which can be
adequately explained by stupidity.”

Lazy web page developers is the most likely
explanation. "Easy" enough answer with
Iceweasel/Firefox is to type:

  about:config

This will get you a list of Iceweasel/Firefox internal
settings. You want to add a new setting:

  general.useragent.override

Type is "string" and the value, well, there are
obviously several that should past muster for that
website... :-) .
