Im in the community reverse engineering web CAPTCHAs, it's because they are too easy to reverse engineer with Claude now.

I've seen multiple people break botguard (the obfuscation used by recapcha) within the last year when before it was considered a huge technical envour.

Devices like phones don't have this issue since Google owns the client attestation end to end and can fingerprint you without the risk of receiving spoofed values.
