This was for querying package delivery status. I finally got one right after many attempts. The layout, layers, colors change after every attempt so good luck on figuring out which letters count.
Looks pretty obvious to me.
I'm more infuriated by the "abnormal activity from your IP". It seems pretty much everything is abnormal to these CDNs, including using Firefox on Linux. On the stack/exchange/ask networks I get that shit every fucking time. And no, I'm not using a VPN/Tor.

Greetings. Brazilian here.
I can confirm that a lot of websites unexpectedly block my access with a pretty opaque "403 Forbidden". No Captchas, no Anubis-like man-in-the-middle, just an invisible and ruthless Gandalf digitally yelling "you shall not pass".
I have read similar stories about how Brazilian IP addresses seem to be infested with bots. It's often Brazil: it's odd how people rarely complain about other countries on this matter... Not pointing fingers towards you, specifically, but I wonder how much of geofencing against Brazilian IP addresses stems from prejudice and xenophobia of foreign webmasters.
It's worth mentioning that bots have no borders and aren't restricted to a specific country, but the vast majority of Brazilians (myself included) are restricted to an entire biological existence within Brazilian territory, with hundreds of millions of people never having set foot on an airplane or cruise ship.
Webmasters of the world should think about this before geofencing entire countries. Not just Brazil, but any country out there. Because living beings can't choose where they're born and humans often can't even afford to travel and/or reside elsewhere.
(My sincere apologies for my outburst, but it resonates with the community's name: being blocked from websites just because of nationality is not just Mildly Infuriating: it can be totally infuriating sometimes, and this exact phenomenon happened earlier today while I tried to access a psychology website)
