Need to verify im human every minute / Cloudflare

Out of nowhere i suddenly have to verify im human every other minute. Have to refresh trade page all the time and Awakened poe trade needs to be verified aswell. Talked to support from cloudflare, but nothing they came with helped. Has something happened to my account? I just tried to upload my character to Path of building, but it just says my profile is private. When it never has been, ive been playing this for years now.
Anyone else have the same issues? any fixes?

It's not just you. Something changed a while back (maybe 2 months or so ago). It does it for me every few minutes if I refresh any profile page. The forums section and the trade site do not ask for verification for me at least.

I sent a very detailed 10 bullet point email to GGG support on August 16th about this explaining things like swapping DNS, using a VPN, disabling all extensions, swapping browsers, clearing all cache & cookies, trying my Android phone, and even testing this over a cellular connection do not change this new behavior of this check.

One of the emails I received back was this exact reply:

"Please note that these checks are in place to prevent our services being spammed with certain types of requests. If you're being checked regularly, it's possible that something that you are doing is triggering Cloudflare."

If this happens every few minutes over a cellular connection, my personal ISP, and through a VPN with no game open (no awakened or anything running), then something on the server side of the website or authentication system likely changed to this new verification.

Also, I had a friend verify this also happens to him and he does not even play the game any longer. He is located about 700 miles away from me and uses a completely different fiber ISP.

Lastly, I'm not in some country with odd ISP issues & routing.
I'm on a direct fiber connection & major cell carrier in the US.

I guess we just have to deal with it and accept it's possibly the new normal.
