So, to extend your comment: you do not need to worry about content if your website isn't even reachable. A GET request should never result in the client being bombarded with captchas. Unless you have a sure fire way to determine if said client is a human or an evil AI taking over the world (nobody does), just serve the damn page.

It's definitely not, there is something else doing that to you. But it's not this website.

It's using some form of DDOS protection, not Cloudflare, but something. Access it via tor to see an example.
