Http://www.Google.com/sorry
- dandrewsen 13y agoHas anyone else been getting redirected to this page after doing a search via the Chrome address bar?
- gee_totes 13y agoAre you using tor?
- dandrewsen 13y agoNope, I'm not using Tor or anything like it.
- sp332 13y agoIt does nothing but ask for captchas over and over?
- talles 13y agoSame here @ work. Might check again when I got home.
- ambiate 13y agoWithout the 'back link', it cannot redirect you to your original search. Your 'from location' is google.com/sorry, so, once you pass the test, it sends you back to google.com/sorry instead of back to your previous activity which triggered the Captcha.
- sp332 13y agoWouldn't my referrer point back to this HN page?
- SpenserJ 13y agoIf you're coming from an HTTPS page (which I think HN forces) to an HTTP page, the referer is not sent. It is only sent for HTTP->HTTP and HTTPS->HTTPS (even cross-domain, despite the info that leaks out) http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec15.html#sec15.1.3 http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec15.html#sec15...
- ecaron 13y agoSomeone on your IP is hitting Google enough that Google's temporarily banning your IP. Take your laptop to your neighborhood coffee shop as a proof of concept.
- dandrewsen 13y agoIt doesn't look legit though - shouldn't it be using Google's captcha service? http://www.google.com/recaptcha/captcha http://www.google.com/recaptcha/captcha
- aroch 13y agoThese are the same captchas they use on Gmail for registration and what not.
- scottcanoni 13y agoThis seems to happen sporadically in the morning at my company and I speculate that it's due to a large number of employees who are querying Google at the same time from the network's IP. Google sees this as bot-like behavior and shows the capthca.
