Login not possible due to captcha problem

Starting yesterday evening Dropbox wants me to solve 10 (!) captchas where I have to sit people in certain rows in a room. First of all: Who had this horrible idea? Can you make it even more complicated to access my data?

Second: Even when I solve the captchas the login won't work with Firefox. It did work with Edge - And no - this cannot be a permanent solution. 

Please fix this problem or I will have to move to a different platform.

 

Regards,

    So you are referring me to a thread where there is also no solution and people are complaining about the same problems for weeks? 

    Wow. That's customer support!
