Interesting, we do ship an UA override and a CSS injection for it, but seems like they no longer work.
Ksenia, do you have the bandwith to investigate?

I was able to reproduce the issue on Firefox 128.0b7 / Firefox Nightly 129.0a1, build ID 20240626114148, using Windows 11, after navigating to directv.com and pressing the "SIGN IN" -> "WATCH NOW" option from the drop-down menu (I used a VPN to simulate being in the USA).
Verified as fixed on Firefox 128.0b10, build ID 20240630171746 (from Comment 8) and on Firefox Nightly 129.0a1, build ID 20240701094548, using Ubuntu 22.04, Windows 11 and macOS 14.4. The browser unsupported message is no longer displayed. The sign in form is now displayed after pressing the "SIGN IN" -> "WATCH NOW" option.
