Detected by Google

[thewildman]

Hi

I've rewritten a script originally in full selenium/webdriver/threads mode to zendriver.
So far so good, but I still get detected by google from time to time, and I wonder what could trigger this. I have 100 proxies that I rotate through, so I though some of them might just be IP banned, but when I use the same proxy and try the same google query manually on my browser, i works just fine, no captcha.
So somehow, google is detecting zendriver, and I can't figure out how.
I tried many things, and event when my script types letters one by one, trigger the autocomplete to drop down and so on (so exactly what a human would do), it sometimes gets banned.
Any hint on what to look after ?
I was thinking about browser hints (sec-ch-* headers), but from what I can see when going to bot detection websites, they don't look toot suspicious...
Thanks !

I was reading that google in the recent 2 weeks is detecting many browsers.

Hi @jvarela07. That's exactly my time frame.
Could you elaborate on where you've read that please ? I would be very interested.

@thewildman Hi, try changing the Chrome user agent version to 140 like this:
"--user-agent=Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/140.0.0.0 Safari/537.36"
