Bloomberg - Are you a robot? (2024)

FAQs

How do I get rid of I am not a robot CAPTCHA? ›

Proving that you are human and not a computer programme is mainly to prevent automated software (Robots/bots) and spammers from performing actions on your behalf. CAPTCHA is a programme that is used to protect you.

Google interprets that your IP address / device sends multiple search requests at the same time (this creates a suspicious effect on the search engine). With CAPTCHA, Google makes sure that you are not a robot or a computer program that sends multiple requests for search or spam.

Simply put, by clicking “I'm not a robot,” you are giving Google permission to analyze your online behavior to determine if you are a human.

So, suppose there no problem on my IP right if both of other browser pass the cloudfare checking. That means it's a browser issue, that is your browser is not sending enough important data to tell the system it's a legit user. Instead the system think it's a bot or spam to try to stop you with captcha.

Captchas cannot be disabled for a specific user. You can increase the amount of failed login attempts.

Shared Network: If you are accessing the platform from a network used by many users, it may increase the likelihood of being flagged as a bot. Device or Browser Settings: Some browser extensions or settings may trigger false positives in the reCAPTCHA assessment.

With many active customers, there is a high chance of you trying to access the same website with the same IP address as other customers. This will usually cause the Captcha prompt to pop out, as the website finds multiple connection requests from the same IP address suspicious.

What to do when you get this message. The message most likely shows a reCAPTCHA. To confirm that you're a person and not a robot, solve the reCAPTCHA. After you solve it, the message goes away, and you can use Google again.

How do I get rid of Google asking if I'm a robot? ›

reCAPTCHA is a free service from Google that helps protect websites from spam and abuse. A “CAPTCHA” is a turing test to tell human and bots apart. It is easy for humans to solve, but hard for “bots” and other malicious software to figure out.

As the BBC's QI revealed, ticking the little box is actually letting the site check things like your internet browsing history to determine whether you're a real person or not. "Ticking the box is not the point. It's how you behaved before you ticked the box that is analysed," Sandi Toksvig explained to the panel.

It's not actually the act of clicking “I'm not a robot” that confirms you're not a bot. It's what happens before you click it. “When you click on that checkbox, the site sends back a bunch of information to Google,” John Lloyd, chief technology officer of Casaba Security, told Reader's Digest.

In many regions, you can tap the Skip option on the phone number screen if you've provided a backup email address. If you don't have the "Skip" option, you can get a temporary phone number or use a friend or family member's phone to verify.

Unfortunately, you cannot disable CAPTCHA, otherwise, you will be receiving a lot of spam via the form.

Google reCAPTCHA may block you because of a high number of requests from your network, which can be because you're on a public network or using any VPN/Proxy services. Try disabling your VPN/Proxy service or resetting your IP address to solve the issue.

If you are seeing it all the time there might be a malicious software, a browser plug-in, or a script that sends automated requests, a different computer using the same IP address may be responsible.
