VPN = CAPTCHA hell
Additionally, Gmail performance is drastically impacted, often not loading toolbars, etc. It also seems any sites using Google's ReCAPTCHA library throw up far more puzzles, it's just comical at this point. And sites using other products like Google Analytics may or may not eventually finish loading.
I understand malicious actors might use these VPNs but I also understand that Bing has never once required me to squint at pictures of stoplights in order to search for words. For the record, this has already caused me to opt for Zoho over GSuite (or whatever it's called now) for my new work domain. Unfortunately this does not help with the huge number of sites using ReCAPTCHA, GA, etc.
This question has been asked before, and closed without an actual answer (just a link to a FAQ page that does not even include the term "VPN"). I'm hoping to get further this time - can anyone tell me what VPNs Google will allow me to use without interference? Or anything I can do to get Google to at least recognize me on the same session of the same browser on the same computer with the same IP address for a workable length of time? Predictably, I do not seem to have this problem when testing with the Google Fi VPN on my phone.
Any fixes?
Thanks.
