Google Contact

Any Google engineers that can contact me off list? Seems our address space
has been blacklisted by Google and we have to enter captchas for them now.

v6 or v4? We had a round of issues with v6 traffic getting the CAPTCHA treatment for a while:

Is that the capture that happens in front of certain websites? I had that happen for two totally unrelated IP blocks. They eventually cleared within a day or two, but I think they’re having problems with the detection systems. The captcha also didn’t work right for the site I was trying to access (hackernews).

the official channels but seems hard to get to a human being.

While it was as an home-user level, I also experienced the same issues for
the past few days, however those warning haven't appeared today.

If you do accomplish clearing yourself from blacklist, may you please give
feedback as to how (apart from this list) alternatively contact them?
I do remember a business I was giving service that had the same issues, and
I would like to know how to solve that next-time.

Blacklisting IP space is rare (blocks will expire), but sometimes if abuse
is seen from a broad range of IPs they can all be blocked (to handle
hosting providers that give customers lots of IPs).

The detection systems are working as intended.

The captcha also didn’t work right for the site I was trying to access

(hackernews).

Please send details off-list including: URL, timestamp, source IP, observed
behavior, and anything unusual about your setup (like disabling cookies).
