    Maybe this is the kick up the arse companies need to finally start using hCaptcha or even Anubis.

      We’ve moved to Cloudflare’s turnstile and it’s significantly less obnoxious.

        Unless you use a VPN and run any kind of script blocker like noscript or uBlock Origin’s medium or hard modes.

        So fucking obnoxious.

          Yup. I’ve had to add exceptions to my VPN for this reason. Mainly food/grocery delivery sites for some reason

          It’s almost every time for me. Maybe they don’t like my ad blocker or my browser’s privacy settings but it’s rare for hCaptcha to let me through after three or four repetitions.

          Usually I give up after ten because of it won’t let me in by then it won’t let me in after a hundred. I tried.

            It should work if you use a Firefox based browser with tracking protection set to strict and resistFingerprinting disabled, then use Jshelter with the following settings.

            • Locally rendered images: Little lies
            • Locally generated audio: Little lies
            • WebAssembly speed-up: Enabled
            • Everything else including Fingerprint Detector disabled

            Then visit fingerprint.com in a normal window, then visit it again in private mode with a VPN or with a dufferent server selected. You will see that the ID is different both times which proves that you’re protected.

            As for the adblocker, just use uBlock Origin with the Quick Fixes list disabled as it may shadowban YouTube comments because their bot protection is silent.

              That is… a rather byzantine list of requirements to get a captcha service to work as opposed to just running a Firefox derivative with tracking protection on standard and a default-configuration uBO (which is the specific configuration that led to the 100 repetitions, not some kind of recommendation).

                A standard Firefox is not private and is easily fingerprintable. Those settings give you good privacy but won’'t make most captchas fail.

                  I am perfectly aware that these settings aren’t very private and I usually run something a bit tighter. My point was that even a mostly vanilla setup couldn’t get past hCaptcha.

                    You said “Firefox derivative” so resistFingerprinting may be enabled and WebGL blocked. If you’re talking about Librewolf, you should turn those off, then use Jshelter to get the non-breaking protection back.
