Google’s QR-code reCAPTCHA now requires approved Android or iOS devices, blocking some deGoogled and privacy-focused operating systems from verification 📱
@GrapheneOS says the system expands hardware attestation and increases dependence on Apple or Google-controlled mobile ecosystems 🔒🔗 https://cybernews.com/privacy/google-qr-code-recaptcha-requires-approved-phone/

CW: Google's New Monopoly Over the Web (re: reCaptcha & Play Integrity)
Wait, so reCaptcha can now require that you have an iPhone or an Android phone with Google Play Services?
This is really really bad. :neocat_sad: And, what's worse, is it seems nobody is talking about it.
For anyone unfamiliar, Apple's App Attest and Google Play Integrity are "hardware attestation" which uses a hardware lockout to verify that you device is 'valid' and not tampered with. It sounds like good security in theory, until you think about it for more than two seconds. It effectively means that, in order to have a 'valid' device, you need to be approved by either Apple or Google. As such, it doesn't work with non-Google Android ROMs like GrapheneOS, /e/, LineageOS, etc. Once your device isn't considered valid by Play Integrity it locks you out of hundreds of apps, effectively giving Google complete monopolistic control over Android.
This change to reCaptcha brings that same monopolistic control to the web. If you thought you could be above the Apple/Google duopoly in some way, congratulations, it's officially impossible. You have to own a Google Play-certified phone or iPhone in order to use the internet in 2026.
For anyone hoping the European Union will step in, I wouldn't hold your breath.

Old CAPTCHAs asked: "Can you think?" New reCAPTCHA asks: "Are you compliant?"
Google shifted the question from proving you're human to proving you're their customer. That's not security. That's a loyalty test.

O Google bloqueou a capacidade de reCaptcha sem usar Google Play Services, o que cria um problema pra quem não pertence ao ecossistema deles. Sistemas operacionais que não o usam, como GrapheneOS ou LineageOS, ficarão em uma situação de desgraça.

🚨 BREAKING: Google just changed the rules of the web.
Their new reCAPTCHA now REQUIRES Google Play Services to prove you're human. If you run GrapheneOS, LineageOS, or any de-Googled Android, you are being locked out of the internet.
Is privacy now incompatible with web access? We break it down.

So #Google is doing this now.
This is an actual thing #reCAPTCHA is doing now.
Google. Honey. Bro. You need to put a domestic violence survivor, or at least someone whose job it is to think like a stalker onto every single product management team you have, because the teams you've got are putting forth such bad ideas and NOBODY FEELS EMPOWERED TO TELL THEM SO. Or they just don't listen.
Training people to open whatever QR code a website shows them on their phone is a massively bad idea. I'm honestly not going to be surprised to see an official reCAPTCHA version of the "paste this into the Run dialog box and press enter to prove you're human" scam.
From a #digitalprivacy standpoint, this allows Google to associate your browser fingerprint with your mobile device fingerprint, if they haven't already. "Don't be evil" my muscular buttocks.
If you see this, choose one of the other options to verify (the headphone or eye icons at the bottom).

Boykott, Webseitenbetreiber anschreiben - Ich lese viele Gedanken zum dreist-monopolistischen QR Code #reCAPTCHA von #Google.
De facto verhindert Google damit den unabhängigen, uneingeschränkten Zugang zum freien Internet.
Mein Weg geht deshalb über die #Bundesnetzagentur als staatliche Aufsichtsbehörde.
Und ich kann alle nur dazu aufrufen, dort ebenfalls Druck zu machen:https://www.bundesnetzagentur.de/DE/Allgemeines/Kontakt/start.html

Google's reCAPTCHA Fails De-Googled Android Users, Impacting Privacy
The issue with Google is much worst than i tought.
Imagine this: you’ve diligently stripped down your Android device, eschewing Google Play Services for a leaner, more privacy-respecting experience. You’ve embraced custom ROMs like GrapheneOS, taking control of your digital footprint and reclaiming your autonomy. Then, you try to access a website. Instead of a simple check, you’re met with an impenetrable barrier, a digital “Sorry, you are not welcome here.” This isn’t a hypothetical scenario; it’s the stark reality for a growing number of users thanks to Google’s latest iteration of reCAPTCHA.

Google's reCAPTCHA Fails De-Googled Android Users, Impacting Privacy

Apparently, this is live since at least October 2025:
Instead of image puzzles, #reCAPTCHA can display a QR code that you cannot "verify" without a smartphone running Google Play Services:
https://piunikaweb.com/2026/05/07/google-recaptcha-play-services-requirement/
This not only locks out de-googled phones, but since QR codes can be generated per browser request, Google can track exactly you visited a specific webpage, confirmed by your own smartphone. Which means: It doesn't even matter whether you're using a VPN.

Je n'ai pas de téléphone Android sans Google, mais est ce que Firefox avec un user-agent type Safari/iOS permet de passer les reCaptcha de Google ?
Est ce la solution ?

How many critical services are tied to abominations like #reCAPTCHA and #SafetyNet API? #Banking, #Healthcare, #eCommerce, #PublicServices, #PublicTransport, #RideHailing and even #WeatherServices. What are the implications of every citizen having to seek permissions from a trillion-dollar MNC to access any of them?
Check out #PRISM to see who Google silently shares this data with. #Google is a serious #state_sponsored #ThreatActor against individuals & national #sovereignty.

Looks like #Google managed to sneak #PlatformAttestation into #Android after all, after their insidious #WEI proposal was shot down by pubic outcry. They've tied the nextgen #reCAPTCHA to the Android #PlayServices.
Upon detection of suspicious activity, you'll be asked to scan a QR code with Play Services running. The users of #degoogled Android like #Graphene will no longer be able to solve it. You'll be restricted to devices blessed by Google.

Oh no! Google's #reCAPTCHA stopped working for de-googled #Android users! 😱 Clearly, the real tragedy here is that those poor souls are now deprived of the privilege of proving they're not robots to the very company they're trying to avoid. 🙄

Wie Google angekündigt hat wird zum 02.04.2026 das Betriebsmodell von reCAPTCHA weltweit umgestellt. Der Dienst wandelt sich von einem Angebot mit eigener Datenhoheit hin zu einer klassischen Auftragsverarbeitung.

No clue what happened to one of my blogs. I just visited it and there's this dodgy looking #recaptcha. I meant to move the #Hugo static files from #Hostinger to #Bunnynet but haven't—doing it now!
Update:
Move to Bunny.net + SourceHut successful! I had to use my own guide as I forgot some steps of using #sourcehut builds #cicd(I'm a big fan of Bunny, if you want to support me: https://bunny.net?ref=k4vc3x5108)
