Fully agree. Related: we noticed they have the invisible google recaptcha on the submission page for registering covid test kits.

If you have google.com blocked, instead of asking you to unblock it you just get told "we can't confirm the details you entered are genuine".

I didnt know that. That's pretty disappointing. What do they expect us to do if we want to report test results but not allow Google captcha?

We checked the physical instructions and no other option is offered. I wonder if they even considered people might have google blocked when building the system.

Page in question: https://test-for-coronavirus.service.gov.uk/register-home-te...

Even the feedback form linked from there is "Protected by reCAPTCHA". Ridiculous.
