Cloudflare captcha

Today, they stopped letting me into many sites, a captcha from Cloudflare pops up. He says that some attacks are coming from my IP and asks to scan my computer for viruses. The problem is that I have all the computers on the network either on Linux or on MacOS and there is clearly nothing to scan.
Here is a screenshot of the page: 199.231.93.124/screenshots/Access%20Restricted.png
How can I get rid of this page?

Option 1: You have registered "left" dns and the captcha is given to you by completely different sites.
Option 2: You did catch a virus, it is quite possible on both Linux and MacOS, especially if you have Java installed

You never know, I went to a web page (for example, the site was hacked), which, under the background of javascript, hammers victim websites with get requests.

Maybe you have an atypical browser user-agent?
Also, Linux does not mean that you are protected from viruses. For example, you may have a malicious cross-platform extension for Firefox or Chrome (Chrome allows you to run extensions even after closing all windows, which is especially convenient) and do dirty deeds.

If we talk specifically about placehold.it, then the problem (or rather, blocking) is on the side of placehold.it and / or CloudFlare, which is why, for example, the Twitter Bootstrap site began to use holder.js instead of this service: github.com/twitter/bootstrap /issues/5722
