There isn't. This article is laughable because there is an astronomical amount of bot traffic that masquerades as legitimate human traffic. Things like puppeteer extra stealth and residential proxies have made it easier to hide a bots presence on the web. Also, the tracking they allude to via fingerprinting would very much be the same whether it's a human solving a captcha or a seamless process where your browser solves one.
