>One thing I will say though, is that proof-of-work alone isn't a solution for ddos mitigation and bot protection! I've seen attackers using a mass of proxies and headless browsers to solve the challenge If you make the challenge sufficiently difficult enough, it should mitigate this no? >or even writing code to extract and solve the challenge directly (https://github.com/lizthegrey/tor-fetcher https://github.com/lizthegrey/tor-fetcher). Similarly if the challenge is difficult, wouldn't matter where it's solved. I'm not sure why one would use Anubis over haproxy-protection.
