Google search asking if I am a robot
Hello everybody,
it's my first post and ask for sympathy :) !!!
Google systems detect unusual traffic and asks me constantly if I am a robot when i am connected to my optimal VPN Server which is in Greece.
How these kind of problems are dealt? Does the BitDefender team do something about it? Any recommendations?
Thank you

Confirmed on my end as well. Greece was the only one that Google flagged. Romania, Italy, Norway, and Automatic (US) all obtained the search results, for "boats".

Hello.
Works fine for me. "I'm not a robot" didn't appear at all.

Good idea to check a different browser. With FF v 115, it worked. But in Edge v 114.0.1823.67 and Chrome v 114.0.5735.199 it comes up with the Google pop up. All searches were done with Google. Bitdefender Anti-tracker was disabled, as well as uBlock, which didn't change a thing. VPN Premium v 25.7.0.1
@Gjoksi have you tried it in Chrome?

Hello,
I think this is not something unsual and can happen, because VPN servers are used by tens, hundreds, maybe even thousands of people at the same time, who will make different requests to Google at the same time, which can trigger the system to think that so many requests from the respective IP come from a "robot".

But why, from what I can tell, is it just doing it in Chrome/Edge? Is it something in the coding, or just because of its (Chromes, even Edge) higher number of users, causing too many people to access that server at the same time?
I'll retry it in an hour or two, and see if it has the same result :)
And granted, once you click the, I'm not a robot, the pages load correctly.

I'm not sure, I think we would have to know exactly how Google's captcha works to find out.. 🙄

No problem, understood :) At times, it's just amazing that with all the apps and technology we have on our devices, let alone VPNs connecting to servers worldwide, that there aren't more issues than the ones we occasionally get :)
