So, is there any information besides a screenshot?

This is just ID verification in another guise. The second I see one of these, I'll stop using the website I see it on.

how is ubuntu touch or kde touch going? when i switch to my next phone Android might be a no go

All these captchas just make me evaluate effort vs need. Facebook throws a captcha every time because I log in from a private window. Before it just gave me a warning unrelated to my interests. I mostly use facebook for work, and those sweet lawnmowing videos. If they keep it up I will only log in for work.

To anyone not switching because of this-- in my experience this is something I can work around. On most websites my captchas still work. I have had a few that dont work, and I just close the website and move on. It hasn't happened on any websites that are very important for me to visit. Usually its a store and they really me to install their stupid app. Nope.

If google requires me to permit other companies to leech all my personal data to be able to use anything on the Internet at all, I say we label Google, Microsoft, Apple as criminal organizations

I'm sorry, bit there have to be limits.

I. DO. NOT. WANT. TO. USE. ANYTHING. GOOGLE.

OR APPLE. OR MICROSOFT.

FUCK ALL THESE OLIGARCH COMPANIES INTO THE GROUND

I do not want my private data leeches and sold every day, I don't even get paid for it

This is really bad even just from the perspective of user behavior. Training people to scan QR codes from anything that looks like a captcha box is HORRIBLE for security.

"Thanks for scanning the code, just one more step! Please input your phone number, and type in the code you receive."

Boom, account stolen.

That's a raid!

Stand your ground.

They should be fined so hard for this shit.

well, I guess i will stop using those websites from my /e/os fairphone

Don't give money to google by buying Pixel phones. Even buying used, creates demand as people are more likely to keep upgrading every year as they know it will be easy to sell their used Pixels for a good price.

Choosing not to buy one now isn't going to help anything at all.

I should be good with sandboxed Google play.

But wtf we’ll need a phone to solve captchas now? What happens if you don’t have one?

I am going to kill myself

That would only make me install Graphene even harder if I wasn't already writing from a phone with it

i havent noticed anything? except youtube being slow as always i supposr (/e/os user)

i have one myself, and I can tell you that grapheneos won't be affected by this. the real damage is to people using things like dumb phones or BSD, even windows computers are effectively locked out of the internet.
