I have noticed a massive uptick in the number of captcha requests from Google, in normal searches, when you use udm=14. They repeatedly categorize you as a bot.
The tech in me says, maybe lots of bots/AI/trainers are using udm=14 to make scraping easier. The cynic says, Google wants to punish udm=14, non-profitable users.
Try before you buy:
https://udm14.com/
This is what I do. I worry discussing it publicly will motivate them to take it way, though.
There's a couple good searchable articles about it, maybe the cat's out of the bag.
Hoping the Google devs would riot if their udm14 links at work stopped working.
Is this why this submission is now gone from the front page? :)
