I hope so, but it could easily come the other way. “We are so used to/deeply integrated/in a close strategic partnership with Google therefore we rather lose 5 % of our customers that care about privacy and are a pain in the ass for our data-driven business.”
5% is huuuge overestimate. Maybe on a tech site or forum. On a regular website for the general public? Less than a rounding error. Remember, we are in a lemmy bubble
It’s almost every time for me. Maybe they don’t like my ad blocker or my browser’s privacy settings but it’s rare for hCaptcha to let me through after three or four repetitions.
Usually I give up after ten because of it won’t let me in by then it won’t let me in after a hundred. I tried.
It should work if you use a Firefox based browser with tracking protection set to strict and resistFingerprinting disabled, then use Jshelter with the following settings.
Locally rendered images: Little lies
Locally generated audio: Little lies
WebAssembly speed-up: Enabled
Everything else including Fingerprint Detector disabled
Then visit fingerprint.com in a normal window, then visit it again in private mode with a VPN or with a dufferent server selected. You will see that the ID is different both times which proves that you’re protected.
As for the adblocker, just use uBlock Origin with the Quick Fixes list disabled as it may shadowban YouTube comments because their bot protection is silent.
That is… a rather byzantine list of requirements to get a captcha service to work as opposed to just running a Firefox derivative with tracking protection on standard and a default-configuration uBO (which is the specific configuration that led to the 100 repetitions, not some kind of recommendation).
Maybe this is the kick up the arse companies need to finally start using hCaptcha or even Anubis.
We’ve moved to Cloudflare’s turnstile and it’s significantly less obnoxious.

I know, it was largely exaggerated, but a smaller percentage makes the negative scenario drastically more realistic.
One can only hope. I know it likely won’t happen. But one has to have hope.
Please not hCaptcha. It’s basically guaranteed to generate infinite loops.
Can’t say I’ve come across that before

Yes just like they all actively support the Firefox browser…
