I always try to access websites that can't be normally accessed in my country (Like binance and bitcoin) and when I use a VPN to access it, cloudflare captcha refreshes the page 1 million times and it decides not to work (For some reason). any ideas? why does this even happen?

@Bukkit often it is due to the particular VPN server you are currently running through at that moment (some are flagged due to past malicious use). Not a guarantee, but sometimes you can just re-connect to another and it MIGHT resolve itself. I have the same issue logging into my bank. Sometimes no problem, sometimes I have to switch the server.

@Bukkit you can try nymvpn they have some residential IP's to get around captchas. Never tried it myself though
idk I block all cloudflare scripts. There are plenty of other bot checkers that work just fine, and so far I've never NEEDED a site with cloudflare.
@bulletbill22 I find it hard to believe you have never visited a site that uses Cloudflare captchas

@nemesis I have, but on my main device(s) cloudflare is blocked by noscript. Amazon works, ebay works, poster.place works, monero.forum works, inv.nadeko.net works, rumble works, my bank's website works, etc.
@bulletbill22 hmmm, I've never seen a captacha on any of those but rumble, and that's only when behind a VPN. I don't use noscript though so I wonder what's doing it for me

@nemesis well I don't think any of them use cloudflare, which is my point. I don't care about bypassing cloudflare because I don't need to. I know that's kinf of uselessm but I think for many major platforms and sites there are alternative frontends available.
@bulletbill22 Ok, if they don't use it then how is it relevant to the original question? And no there aren't alternative front ends for the vast majority of websites in existence.
