I'd like to know why when I use Firefox often google asks me to show I am not a robot. Yes I use a VPN but this does't appear so often using Chrome. Thank you for any information

The VPN is making google.com test your connection as they usually see VPN usage from bots utilizing their engine. I have heard that FF users see it more than Chrome users, which is probably something google is manipulating behind the scenes, unfortunately there isn't much we can do to change their own decisions :(
