Is your feature request related to a problem?
Google is notoriously difficult nowadays and every method gets patched quickly.
Describe the solution you'd like
When the server detects a google browser-test page, it can get the html code and then ask a random user (or, more easily, the user whose request was met with the browser-test page) to run it in a sandboxed iframe safely. This could be opt in, configurable to be opt in, and then (optionally) saved as a separate cookie to the rest of the cookies. Then, the result will be relayed back to the server to be sent to google and get the relevant cookies.
Describe alternatives you've considered
We could keep playing the cat and mouse game
