Using Phoenix servers causing YouTube to make viewers login

[jkemp814]

As of late, YouTube have starting asking me to log in to verify I'm a human and keep the service. This may not be a problem for the Linux client, but more of heavy usage coming from Phoenix?

If I switch to Los Angeles, or Salt Lake City, this doesn't happen. Where would I report this issue if this isn't the place?

I wanna report the same issue YouTube consider nord server bots and require us to login, not only the USA server but cross multiple countries, this is deal breaker and hope nord team find solution.

That's exactly what I'm experiencing. I have to switch to another city. I tried restarting the connection from Phoenix, and no matter what server I get from Phoenix, I get asked to log in. This may very well be Google trying to get viewers to log in to identify them. Why Phoenix so consistently is what's concerning.

Hi, quick update. We have a suspicion what may be happening, but it's not confirmed yet. I'll let you know when we'll find a solution. In the meantime, switching to different city, as you mentioned, would be a quickest way to avoid the issue
