> so if it is causing pain people should find a way to contact the website operators in question

Yeah, no. That's silly and no normie knows how to contact website operators, or are likely to even understand they should. Also how would they find the contact of they can't access the website. This is exactly the same situation as their captcha giving you an infinite loop.

Sure, I mean it wont be the case for all websites but there have been times this site was behind Amazons CDN and I know how to contact dang. It will vary from website to website. Some companies hide behind their CDN which is a red flag telling me to avoid that site. If they are a reputable company there will be a way to reach someone. People here often bring up Google as an example of not being able to reach a human and I refer back to my example of a red flag. If a website is not excluding their "Contact Us" from the AI trap that is either incompetence or malfeasance.
