Error Trace (if any)

(This is the tail end of it... appears to be printing out the entire html in the console)

              // Check that service workers are supported
              if ('serviceWorker' in navigator) {
              // Use the window load event to keep the page load performance
              window.addEventListener('load', function() {
                navigator.serviceWorker.register('/sw.js').catch(function() {
                  console.log('Service worker registration failed');
                });
              });
            }

Couple things

1.) They've added a nonce attribute to all <script and <link tags (gets assigned in the <head tag
2.) secUid has been moved to the jsonldList object

This quick fix will get things back up and running...
get_user function

        t = r.text

        try:
            nonce_start = '<head nonce="'
            nonce_end = '">'
            nonce = t.split(nonce_start)[1].split(nonce_end)[0]
            j_raw = t.split(
                '<script id="__NEXT_DATA__" type="application/json" nonce="%s" crossorigin="anonymous">' % nonce
            )[1].split("</script>")[0]```
