Wait till captcha farm companies bypass this and sell solutions for a profit. I use one and its ~95% accurate which is fine for me I guess.

Re: Turnstile: privacy-preserving alternative to CAPTCHA by Cloudflare
#12This is yet another example of Cloudflare centralizing the web. I’m tired of this. Sure the only previously viable solution was ReCAPTCHA from Google. But it’s Google. I depend on them for search. And, sure, their business model depends on them being able to track me online. But I know them. And it’s hard for me to live without them. So I’m ok with depending on them, but I worry about further centralization of the In…
Amazing

This is a MASSIVE Cloudflare buy signal.

#15As much as I _despise_ modern ReCAPTCHA, I have always been able to pass the challenge eventually; it has never flatly rejected me with no recourse. If I made a mistake or was insufficiently human for it, I got a new challenge and tried again. There are apocryphal stories of Google tar-pitting users with it, but I have never seen it in action.
If this judges the browser more than the user, what do I do when the browser fails? Do I refresh the page hoping for a different batch of invisible challenges? Do I submit a ticket to CF customer support... despite not being a customer?

#17Can’t CAPTCHA be integrated into the browser? Can’t the browser vouch for the user?
That would just DRMize the web with a few select browsers being allowed to access content and the rest being left to dust.

Not really - how could it be worse than the status quo? Worse case you could use turnstile, no?
