I get slapped in my face with this shit on many many sites and it’s annoys the hell out of me.

I don’t even do anything shady ever. I have scraped a website once. Apart from that I try to use privacy respecting stuff like Firefox with addons. Have cookies delete at the end of the session though I don’t know if it does anything.

I have read that reCaptcha gets easier or harder depending on how Google has profiled you.

Why am I helping train AI models if I am a complete normie?

    Because you are a normie that uses Tor and/or a VPN. I’m in the same boat. I use one - that is, a VPN - and man alive! Captchas, captchas everywhere. I’m annoyed to the point that I simply don’t go to sites that use captchas. Which, annoyingly, are a great, many sites, because everyone and their grandmother seems to be using Cloudflare nowadays. Sorry, rant over.
