Google's New CAPTCHA Locks Out De-Googled Phones

[Tentos]

@NJJJ

Anyway, did a bit of digging and the Google site implies that the QR code thing will be one option for website owners alongside existing verification methods. The screenshots still show an icon for an audio challenge (which I suppose they have to include for accessibility reasons)- so maybe this will either be easy to circumvent, or at least only apply to a few websites?

I have followed the link posted by another user on GitHub, which leads to the Google documentation.

The box at the beginning states that

[v]isual and audio challenges are available as alternatives for users who can’t complete mobile verification. To use them, click the Visual or Audio buttons.

Hence, the old (and frustrating ) “click on all cars” challenges will (probably) still be available. (I think that we all agree that https://doom-captcha.vercel.app/ is a much better and accessible option .)
