I had this issue a few months ago and it cleared but now it’s back. Whenever I search anything on Google it detects unusual traffic, makes me do a captcha and even after I do this it’s extremely slow. I am using Brave 1.88.138 on MacOs Tahoe 26.3.1 and do not have any VPN enabled. I’m very certain that this is a Brave issue given that it’s happened before and when I try on other browsers I do not get the error and there is no lag. Other sites work just fine. Any help would be appreciated
