#Amazon (FR and UK) both are now asking for a CAPTCHA if I try to visit them. No contact details and no accessible alternative. Pretty sure this is illegal in the EU. If it isn't, it should be.
Now I can read that page, but I have a friend who very definitely cannot, and would get a headache just looking at that screen for a few seconds (my browser preference is for dark mode, and yet the page is blinding white), and so I refuse to.
