Suspicious activity when using Google in private mode

Any time I enter private mode and do a basic search it pops up saying my activity is suspicious and I have to do a captcha. This only happens on Firefox on Windows, and only in private mode. Android is fine and doesn't do this. Firefox is up to date, no VPN, privacy is on standard. It still happens when extensions are disabled. I saw an older post on here from a few months ago saying this was fixed in an update, but it's back.
