    A Motorola phone soon shipping with GrapheneOS isn’t just a rumor but it doesn’t help with the problem of Google making their very popular robot detection service classify deGoogled Android users as non-human.

      You know what does fix that? boycotting sites that use their protection.

      There are alternatives.

        i generally agree, although for some reCaptcha-using websites there actually aren’t alternatives. eg many governments, healthcare providers, public utilities, etc are using it :(

          The only way that public services stop using a certain brand of captcha is when they get an unreasonable amounts of support requests.

            If their website doesn’t work, start calling and sending letters, too. When it starts affecting more than the IT staff, things might change.
