1Password X breaks CAPTCHA on swiss.com
I was trying to book a flight on Swiss (swiss.com) today. For some reason the Swiss website decided that my traffic looked like a bot, and took me to a page titled "Security check". That page is supposed to have a CAPTCHA on it which you must solve in order to proceed. However, there was no CAPTCHA!
I verified that if I disabled the 1Password X extension in Chrome and then tried again, the CAPTCHA appeared. I then re-enabled 1Password X and reloaded, and the CAPTCHA was gone. I disabled the extension once more, and the CAPTCHA came back.
I'm running Chrome 74.0.3729.131 on Mac OS X 10.14.4 and 1Password X 1.15.2.
I don't know how to consistently get back to the "security check" page, other than to somehow make yourself look to swiss.com like a bot. Sorry! I know that's going to make it harder to fix this. :( Here's the text of the page so you know you've ended up in the right place, though:
"Security check
We apologise for the interruption. We detected unusual behaviour from your browser, which resembles that of a bot.
The reasons could be the following: You have a browser plugin installed that blocks JavaScript, you are using a VPN or privacy software often used by bots, or you are navigating through the website at an unusually high speed.
SWISS International Air Lines thanks you for your understanding."

Hey @primalpeanut ,
You've describes some very strange behavior here. It would be impossible to guess what went wrong without seeing the page.
I checked a few other websites with captchas and they work well with 1Password. For example: https://patrickhlauke.github.io/recaptcha/I'd consider this a one time fluke, unless you're coming across this issue over several websites in a manner that can be considered a bug with 1Password. :chuffed:
