Thank you! So I can use Google but stop it from doing the CAPCHA shit repeatedly because it detects my VPN? It's abuse of the user and I'm tired of it.

I'm sure that's what Google wants. You can either give them your data or you can go somewhere else, but hopefully you choose to give them your data because they make it too inconvenient not to.
