captcha

How do you get passed the not loading captcha from DigitalOcean? This is what I'm getting:

In order to keep DigitalOcean bot-free, please complete this security check

Please unblock challenges.cloudflare.com to proceed.

But because Cloudflare is down, no captcha is showing. Any ideas how to bypass it?

The user is reporting that Cloudflare's outage is preventing them from logging into DigitalOcean due to a captcha issue, and is seeking a workaround.
