Hello!

I've been using the API for a few years now at a reasonable request rate without issue, but today my application is being served a CAPTCHA. Is there a way to get whitelisted to prevent this?

Creating a topic in case this is more widespread than just me.

Thanks

I remember you posted this script a while ago, and it's possible your API key leaked from it.

I know because I based one of my own scripts on yours, but changed the API key. I'd suggest asking for a new key, if that's at all possible.
