I saw that for the 1st time a few days ago and thought it was fake and a virus.  Later that day visited the same page and it was no longer there.  But I didn't have to automate the page.   But I do plan to watch this video even before seeing that "Press & Hold".  Maybe it could help?   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StehOKBOzbI&list=PL6flErFppaj2ArNxLyR4nQ4JV8qFc56-M&index=40

Kickstarter doesn’t want you scraping their data, that’s why your seeing that message. To get past it, stop whatever you’re doing to see that message. Businesses like that put safeguards in place to prevent their data being scraped for a reason.

I have watched the instructional video in the link in the answer above, but it didn't solve my problem either, Currently I am using nodejs to work with this tool, I think selenium can bypass this captcha ,However, it might be because I haven't used it properly, if anyone has another idea, Does anyone know help me ?

Contact Kickstarter and ask permission?

I think even if I contact Kickstarter this will not be allowed, So I just need another way to get the data, the data I need is the data on my account, I can get it directly manually. But my project needs automatic data collection.

I doubt we can help you if you are admitting what you’re trying to do is in contravention of their T&Cs.

If you have any way to help me, I readily accept that I am violating their terms and conditions.

Why would we help you violate their terms and conditions?

If you guys can't hep him then walk away! don't waste your and his time. 
Here is the solution:
That kind on popup or captcha is to prevent bot to craw the data so you can't use normal selenium elements to get anything from them but this one is easy. You just need to press and hold to that button right?
Here you go, this is python code tested on my end, you can search similar thing if you use selenium with java
from pymouse import PyMouse
import time
m = PyMouse()
m.press(400,480) 
time.sleep(4) //press for 4 seconds
m.release(400,480)
