Anyone else get infinite challenges (when using Firefox + VPN) to prove you are a human when you are just trying to read a link at archive.is?

It's probably because you haven't proven you're a human to their satisfaction. Do you have Firefox's privacy settings turned way up? You may need to set an exception. If you block too much and are mixed in with a bunch of other clients, you look like a bot.

If that's the case, you don't need an exception but use other websites. Never lower privacy settings if something like thus occurs
