Google is making it mandatory to have Play Services for its next-generation reCAPTCHA system on Android.
-
Your phone will need to be running Play Services version 25.41.30 or greater when the system asks you to scan a QR code for verification.

Google doesn’t care about screwing up the lives of thousands of people, as long as it can capture the information of millions.
