  Sites you visit use Google, their recaptcha, their analytics, their ads.

    How often do you get capchas?

    It doesn’t happen often at all for me.

    Yup, and Epic Games’ is the absolutely worst. I can’t pass it on my phone regardless of what I do, and I can pass it occasionally on my desktop. I only claim their games, so if it stops working on the two computers it apparently likes, I’ll probably stop visiting their site.

    It seems to have something to do with Firefox and/or my ad blocker.
