        i'm an avid open data contributor, and i'd like to contribute to musicbrainz. the website requires users to solve a google captcha. google makes its profit through surveillance capitalism: tracking the behaviour of users to build a profile on them. this is something i resist. as such i will unfortunately not be contributing to musicbrainz. i wanted to let you know.

        (we'd love not to have a captcha of any sort, but sadly we're constantly getting spam accounts *even* with the captcha, without it it was around 8 times worse if I remember the amounts correctly, so we need something there :) )

        bitmap: Hi, I was looking for some help on https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-9827 for Google Code-In, and was told you might be able to help. I'm trying to find the right place in the code to make the redirect, but i'm not sure where it should go. So far, I've made a redirect through the meta tag in the root/layout/Head.js file, but I realise that a 301 redirect would be more effective. I'm currently thinking of
