So I\'ve been using Mouser for years, but they have a new
customer-killer, a CAPTCHA that pops up every minute or so.
This even after I log into my account there.

Their answer is to blame me for using spam-blocking.

Mine is to look for other suppliers. Besides Digi-Key, who
should I look into?

Which ad-blocking software are you using? I\'m using u-block Origin and am not seeing a problem.

In fact, I see that Mouser is handling the Gowin product. Nice!

It shouldn\'t matter how his browser is setup. I\'ve seem quite a few
companies cock block themselves from a sale with that stupid capcha shit
on poorly configured websites. If they don\'t want your business, that\'s
fine, there\'s always altenatives.

It\'s been 8 years since I left but I used to do a good bit of purchasing
and back then www.heilind.com had the best prices for Alpha wire, JST
and Molex connectors, Omron relays, and various tools. They carry some
other items but no semiconductors. Look at their list of brands they
carry and contact them if they have items you use. They probably do
have some kind of minimum order but I don\'t recall so it must not have
been a bother.

Hi David, AFAIK most spam blockers allow you to
white-list a website. Since Mouser is a valid site
for vending products but probably does engage in
all the other craziness like 3rd-party scripts,
affiliates, and tracking, I see no reason not
to white-list them, and do a clear-cache afterwards.
But if your position is philosophical, you feel you
shouldn\'t have to do that extra work, then OK,
don\'t shop at Mouser. But you are probably on the losing
side of the battle, as more sites monetize their
main business revenue with marketing our personal
data. Whoever said \"technology will save us\"
had no idea..
Regards, Rich S

I don\'t block them, they block me via their CAPTCHA requests
every minute or less.
