- dmos62 7y agoThat's a very informative document. Privacy Pass caught my eye: https://privacypass.github.io/ https://privacypass.github.io/ It's an extension that is currently only supported by Cloudflare's CAPTCHA, that pretty much stores tokens after you complete a CAPTCHA, and the next time instead of requiring you to complete a CAPTCHA again, it will use those tokens. The point is that it does it in an anonymity preserving way. You can fork their server for a custom implementation.
- chatmasta 7y agoSo now the spammers only need to solve one captcha?
- bo1024 7y agoAnd more broadly -- it's kind of funny, but the more we all just roll our own solutions to this, the less standardized the solutions, and the harder it is for spammers to scale.
- anderspitman 7y agoThese types of "blanket captchas" basically destroy browsing via something like Tor, right? I feel like I've seen people complain about Cloudflare's captchas when browsing ananymously.
