Likely an IP reputation thing. If you are using a VPN or routing your network through a cloud IP or VPS, try not doing that. Also check your devices if they've been compromised. Maybe you're part of a botnet.
Have you been repeatedly banned anywhere? (Reddit, Facebook etc).
The only time I've seen someone have a "tainted fingerprint" was because they were a relentless incel troll who kept getting banned on reddit over and over.

IP reputation is usually reset after a while assuming whatever got you flagged stops, so it's not necessarily permanent.
