Quick update I posted at home-assistant/core#128598

I was only able to confirm that currently authentication to North America is not possible. Rest of world still seems fine.

Unfortunately, I won't have the chance to look into it until next week (traveling).

Another update from home-assistant/core#128598

BMW have started using hCaptcha to protect their logins. Even if it doesn't show during login in the app, a captcha check is done in the background.

It seems that when no valid captcha token is preset, the login will be denied.

From a very quick check I have no immediate idea how to solve this (except using external captcha solver services with cost money).
