"textContent": "Even putting a pin in GrapheneOS & degoogled device issue, this would appear to be a tremendous reinvention of the way we interact with the internet. You are not free to simply use a desktop. You MUST have a mobile smart device accessible. Is your phone dead? Charging in the next room? No internet for you\n\nAdding a Google Play requirement ontop of that is kind of insane. Recaptcha is a broad anti-spam protocol; I wouldnt be surprised to learn it has a supermajority marketshare. This feels like a cut-and-dry monopolistic practice",
