Google reCAPTCHA issue #437

Closed brakenow closed 5 years ago

brakenow commented 5 years ago

Hi!

Without relaxed user.js it only takes one recaptcha, but with I have to do many to succeed, but still not OK, so I have to do one more, and one more, and...

Atavic commented 5 years ago

Maybe recaptcha can use beacons and asks the browser to send pings:

beacon.enabled browser.send_pings

brakenow commented 5 years ago

Thanks! Will try.

Atavic commented 5 years ago

Have a look at browser's console. For Firefox > Tools > Web Developer > Network

I have the same issue with the normal (non-relaxed) profile. Need to fill in the ReCAPTCHA over and over again before it finally accepts it. I have concluded that it's only Google giving us shit for not keeping our cookies forever :smile:

nodiscc commented 5 years ago

I get the same behavior (multiple reCAPTCHAs required) and came to the same conclusion.

Why don't you have a Google cookie, citizen

Atavic commented 5 years ago

Same as the previous 2 messages for me.

Google cookie won't help you. I'm logged in with my google account, but after one or two captchas - oftentimes for the first one - I get several captchas, sometimes up to 10 or so.

I found that I had to disable this one on the relaxed profile, or I am sent to "captcha infinite loop" on several french sites like https://www.fnac.com:

// Set Accept-Language HTTP header to en-US regardless of Firefox localization
// https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Accept-Language
pref("intl.accept_languages", "en-US, en");

Obviously Google detects a language mismatch somehow (which is weird because all my locale variables are set to en_US and Firefox is in english).

I'm closing this, as the CAPTCHA is technically working and it's only Google bullying us.
