I'll ask it but what about your browsing setup is unusual?

Because often these reports are from people using weird browsers, privacy plugins, VPNs, javascript off, etc

It does happen to "normal" browsers but are you doing anything that look suspicious?

Best description of the Cloudflare groupthink.

Not using Chromium based browser, not paying Apple or Microsoft, actually enforcing do not track me policies with add-ons. Bunch of weirdos indeed.

I've also always had the feeling my browser setup is what's causing it. I don't think Brave is a "weird" browser, but its privacy oriented features is what Cloudflare challenges and CAPTCHA unfortunately don't play well with.
