Anecdotally, if you use firefox on android to sign in to a wells fargo account you will get a shitload more captchas and extra verification steps to actually login than if you use chrome, or their officially published app.

This is not how the web was supposed to be.

I've gotten a ton of captchas when using Brave. One time I was trying to create an account and I just got an unending stream of them. I literally gave up after 15 or so. If it had said I was going to have to do 20, I might have continued. But there was on light at the end of the tunnel, so I gave up.
Sorry, but you aren't human, we have proof thanks to our extensive surveillance network, please renounce your citizenship and human rights today.
You're supposed to use Chrome while logged into a Google account or be sent to captcha hell.
