If you want to do scraping with Selenium / Puppeteer or Playwright on sites like Idealista that is blocked by DataDome you can use Kameleo. While the above mentioned automation frameworks fail due to as mentioned: "Headless browsers have unique characteristics that differ from regular browsers. DataDome can detect these discrepancies and identify the browser as automated." While Kameleo's browsers: Chroma and Junglefox is designed for webscraping. They hide under the radar, melts in the crowd as it provides a natural browser fingerprint. With this you will be able to scrape with Selenium+Kameleo or Puppeteer+Kameleo or Playwright+Kameleo

Well well, it can be easily bypassed / scrapped by solving the audio challenge by using any speech to text API. Now I can effortlessly bypass datadome protected sites in puppeteer itself.

Seriously guys there is no need to use an external service!
