Beware it'd be quite easy to decensor that qr from the image.
None of these are about identifying if you're human, they're about identifying which human you are.
Not to excuse Google's practices, but you can select the eye icon to continue training an AI to detect buses and bikes.
Oh, thanks for letting me know. I missed that one, as it isn't all that clear that's what it does.
I also use an extension called buster that automatically solves the audio accessible captcha challenge.
Ironic
I tried watching some yt in librewolf made me do 5 captchas an i had to switch vpn location so fuck google
I have degoogled but YT is the only thing I’m stuck with. The monopoly is too much to overcome.
Freetube + Invidious
I use Freetube, what does Invidious do?
There are two ways of using Freetube, either with YouTube’s APi or with Invidious’s APi.
When using YouTube’s APi you won’t get the same ad-blocking and proxying benefits compared to Invidious’s API.
One bonus of using Invidious is that your traffic is combined with everyone else’s who use that same instance, for example if you use https://inv.nadeko.net/ your traffic will be masked along side everyone else’s who happens to use that same instance making it harder for big corporations to track you, in this case Google.
For me freetube usually only works about 30% of the time.
Depending on your configuration, your experience will differ greatly.
As mentioned in another comment I made, Freetube relies heavily on either directly connecting to YouTube’s API or proxying through an Invidious instance, perhaps try a different Invidious instance, but in my case Freetube + Invidious works 9 times out of 10 for me.

Name the offending website please.
Google. It's their recaptcha service doing that. The QR code validation also gets rejected if you're using a privacy oriented mobile OS like Graphene.
At the cost of conditioning people into following orders from random qr codes

I'll get hate for referencing a solution that involves AI, but this looks promising: https://github.com/Captcha-Sonic/CaptchaSonic-Extension
