2 years on and Peacock streaming service still doesnt work with linux (works with Chromebooks though)
Then they're probably reading True OS Core with js, there are even libraries for that, such as Detectizr, and as far as I know you cannot spoof it, because it is read by executing system-specific commands. Linux is up-to-date with media streaming DRMs, besides, as you said it works on Chromebook, which runs on Linux kernel, so again, it is website's fault, not OS's.
