I would like to know what is actually, technically going on behind the scenes when #cloudflare throws a captcha just because I'm using a #VPN, claims it has detected "suspicious activity," and needs to "verify I am human."

I'm 90%+ sure neither of these stated justifications is honest and do not represent what's really happening.

It is much more likely, IMO, cloudflare is making some attempt at identifying me in order to sell marketing data - probably some pattern match of device profile to a known identity database. But I don't really know and would like to.

Bro. You normally access your account with a specific IP from, lets say, USA. Than, in a good Sunday morning you try to access it from an IP from Germany and successfully access with your password. So, the site suppose that you got hacked. Thats why. DO THIS CAPTCHA for me HACKER BOT.
