Science Direct is blocking CAPTCHA attempts

I hate science direct.


Until recently, I was able to "solve captcha" to download PDFs from science direct, but this is no longer working.  Maybe you guys could work on whatever mechanism you were using to hold onto the captcha verification for paperpile?

Did I tell you about how I hate science direct?

Thank you for your feedback, @David_Priest. ScienceDirect uses strict download protections, which is why CAPTCHA appears; often more frequently if you’re downloading a lot. This is their policy, and it’s not something we can bypass or control.

If it still doesn’t work as expected, please share further details and/or a screenshot. We’re happy to help troubleshoot.
