Lots of new CAPTCHAs

See original GitHub issue

I went months without getting a CAPTCHA but since around the beginning of September I am getting them every day. Is it just me? Did something change in the login page that aws-google-auth is not handling and is making Google suspicious?

For those who installed aws-google-auth using Homebrew, I submitted a PR to upgrade the urllib3 and requests dependencies and it’s already merged.

If you upgrade your package your should stop seeing the CAPTCHAs problem 🙂.

Upgrade to python 3.9(from 3.8) solve issue for me on Mac OS

Doesn’t seem to have made any difference to me on Ubuntu 20.04

sorry not directly related to version, when i downgraded i used asdf to install python 3.8.2 . urllib3 using asdf version of python was using version 1.26.2 when getting captchas it was on version 1.25.8

upgrading urllib3 to 1.26.2 did the trick for me. awscli/boto3/botocore needed upgrading to allow me to do so, that’ all good though. I do now get a warning when I run aws-google-auth:

/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/requests/__init__.py:89: RequestsDependencyWarning: urllib3 (1.26.2) or chardet (3.0.4) doesn't match a supported version!
  warnings.warn("urllib3 ({}) or chardet ({}) doesn't match a supported "

no more CAPTCHAs though 👍
