Well. That's probably fantastic news; using ReCAPTCHA (and thereby making users subject to Google's tender mercies) was honestly my main reason to dislike cloudflare from a user's perspective. ReCAPTCHA is utterly foul; it follows you everywhere it can, exists to undermine privacy, punishes non-Chrome users, and throws you in an infinite loop when it decides that you're not a human.

I don't blame reCAPTCHA for existing, I blame Cloudfare for using. It made using Tor literally impossible. Hopefully this will be better.

Didn't Privacy Pass help here?

I have no idea what privacy pass is, but if it involves setting browser state across more than one site, then it breaks the tor anonymity model.

Anyway, hopefully hCaptcha works with Tor.

Specifically designed to allow you to authenticate once and then use that as a proof of work across multiple sites, without revealing your identity as being connected across those sites. Here's the math: https://blog.cloudflare.com/privacy-pass-the-math/

I'm not so hot on this stuff so this might be answered or clear on the site and I didn't get it - can the other sites tell who authenticated you? Can the authenticator add metadata?

I'm wondering about other use cases, using it to prove you've paid for something, or donated perhaps. Or passed a daily quiz/challenge. I feel like there's some fun ways of using this.
