Ah, yes, the captcha arms race. I've encountered bots that can solve simple text captchas (especially bots routed through Tor) and as ML gets cheaper and more accurate I do wonder what the end result will be...
- greglindahl 7y agoWell, for Tor in particular, the most likely end result is Tor being banned from an increasing number of websites.
- mirimir 7y agoThat already happened.
- Topgamer7 7y agoYeah honestly surprised scraping through tor would work. I imagine most commercial solutions routinely block exit nodes.
- viraptor 7y agoDepending on how you read the embargo laws for your country, you may be required to block them. If you identify the source of the traffic as a non-country, dropping it may be what you want to do.
