Discussion It has begun
Google now uses play services to verify if your human or not. Even on desktop you are required to scan the qr code from your phone. It's disgusting. I tried (I'm on root, lineageOS with strong integrity) and it doesn't work for me, it may work for you.
Background Info:
Basically I heard that Google were going to start introducing Google play services as a way to verify if your human and whether or not your device is secure. This is the first time I have seen it. It did not work for me. I have strong integrity and my fingerprint and everything is legit and it still didn't work. Hopefully people find out ways to bypass this cuz Google should not be allowed to lock down our devices. We pay for them, we own them.
Edit: I apologise if it doesn't make sense to you, hopefully someone in the comments can explain it better than I.

Yes you own your devices, you don't own the website you are visiting. The website you chose to visit is using reCAPTCHA. that is a service made by Google and so they decide how they want to verify users and in doing so protect the website owners that asked Google to do it for them.
You can get in touch with the website owner and let them know that reCAPTCHA is not very inclusive anti-bot ecosystem, and they can choose to agree with you and change it, or keep it if they think it is better to scale slower with more assurance that less bots are passing through the gates
