Does Google search require CAPTCHAS to be solved with every VPN provider? Is there a VPN provider that can bypass CAPTCHAS?

I am using Private Internet Access and with any server I need to solve a CAPTCHA for every search I make. I’ve tried using DuckDuckGo and Bing but the search results aren’t quite up to par with Google’s. So I am looking for another VPN provider as I need Google. Does anyone know a good VPN provider that can bypass these CAPTCHAS somehow?

Pretty sure Google always gives Captchas on VPNs, since they see all the traffic coming from the same IP. Unless you set up your own personal VPN, there's no way to bypass the Captchas.

So basically Google is saying either stop using a VPN and let us make money off of your info or no Google access for you. lol

It's not the VPN that's the inherent issue, it's the fact that so many requests are coming from the same IP address. Schools and businesses get occasional Captchas too for this same reason. The way VPNs work is that they gives you a "fake" IP address, which is actually a real IP address located somewhere in the world. However, that "fake" IP address is given to numerous other users of the VPN, which makes it appear from Google's perspective that a ton of computers are sending requests from the same IP address.

Bing and DuckDuckGo do not make VPN users solve captchas. Along with Startpage and many others. It’s just Google that does. Lighten up dude

DuckDuckGo does not have the same levels of traffic as Google, and Bing doesn't either for different reasons. Google isn't the only site that forces Captchas. If you try to log on any major website while on a VPN, it makes you do a Captcha, even on your first login attempt.

Google and sites protected by CloudFlare will require an IP address to complete a CAPTCHA challenge if it is sending too many requests. Keep in mind that you do not reserve a public IP address by default when using PIA services. Generally, if you want to avoid CAPTCHAs, use PIA servers outside of the US, or reserve a dedicated IP address here.

No. What happens is your being detected as a potential bot. When you use a VPN you are sharing a IP Address with a unknown amount of users and potentially bots as well. When there is a specific number of requests in a specified time period, it triggers a bot check. These checks are not to prevent you from using a service but to rather limit the number of requests from bots to save resources. Many other websites run similar checks.

Bing has a Captcha Check, the fact that it's not being triggered behind a VPN just shows how much it's not used. DuckDuckGo currently doesnt have any bot checks in place as far as I am aware. DuckDuckGo refuses to use current proprietary methods due to data collection, We may see a more open bot check implemented in the future, but as it stands now there isn't enough traffic to really demand one.
