Google blocking search

Essentially, this is because T-Mobile uses CGNAT, which assigns multiple users to a single IP address and then T-Mobile directs the traffic from there. My guess is that T-Mobile as over-allocated the number of users per IP to the point where Google is triggering the Captcha due to excess traffic.
So, in other words, T-Mobile may have hundreds of people assigned to one IP, but Google sees this as a single network. So when everyone is sending Google searches, Google sees this as abuse and begins doing the Captcha. The only way to fix this would be either a static IP (which is only available for Business accounts), pure IPv6, or a VPN that isn't over-allocated.
Google will not provide individual assistance, and this is a symptom of T-Mobile's continued reliance on 6to4 translation. T-Mobile needs to move to pure IPv6. Until one of those solutions is done, this will only get worse.
