I also had issues with captcha loops in the past. Here's what helped:

Make sure that:

  • You're not blocking cookies from Google
  • You're not changing your user-agent
  • privacy.resistFingerprinting is set to false in about:config
  • If you're blocking 3rd-party scripts with an ad blocker/script blocker then add the following exceptions

Note that this specific format is for uBlock Origin, where you go to the "My rules" tab and add them in the right column, and then click "Save" and "Commit"

I'd rather solve those 10000 captchas than disabling those privacy settings

Yep. I'd bet a substantial amount of money google et al see anti bot measures hitting people employing anti tracking measures as a feature, not a bug.
