That's even worse than reCAPTCHA. At least as a human using Tor you have some shot at solving a captcha, even though you usually have to try 5 times or move to a different end node.
- 0xdeadb00f 6y agoI've been caught in captcha loops before. It will flat out refuse to let me in and I will solve captcha after captcha after captcha. This has happened to me when using Tor, being prompted by that annoying Cloudflare "Attention Required!" page both when they were using reCaptcha AND when they more recently switched to hCaptcha. It would have saved me quite a lot of time if those sites had just flat out said "403 Forbidden".
