The issue with using Python's Selenium module to locate the ID of a Captcha is that Captchas are specifically designed to prevent automated scripts like Selenium from accessing them. Captchas are meant to be solved by humans and not bots. Therefore, there are typically measures in place to detect and block automated attempts at solving Captchas, which may result in the script being blocked or the user being banned from the site. Additionally, attempting to bypass Captchas using automated methods goes against the ethical principles of web scraping and can lead to legal repercussions.
