Recaptcha.net consuming my child's Screen Time daily

My son has a screen time limit of 3 hours per day. He has no web browser on his phone. How is recaptcha.net taking up an hour of his screen time every day?

How can I login to websites with reCAPTCHA on iPad Pro? My iPadPro running iPadOS 18.5 blocks reCAPTCHA, which prevents me from logging in to some websites. There is no indication that a reCAPTCHA is present on the iPad Pro, although it appears on the same website on Ubuntu and Windows platforms. I have tried all of the suggestions i have found, including deleting website data, enabling Automatic Verification, minimizing Safari's privacy settings, etc. Using another browser (Firefox) doesn't help either. How can I access websites that require reCAPTCHA on my iPad? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

I’m having the same issue with my son’s screen time. He only gets an hour a day and it’s completely up by the time he m wakes up. It’s crazy.
