Every website has this shit now
>>106517353Stop consooming slop.
>>106517353It actually helps against bots. I know this because I scrape a lot. I have tested many sites with many anti-ddos measures and cloudflare is the only one that can detect and refuse playwright and other headless browsers. In short, the only website I cannot scrape is using cloudflare. So the same goes for bots.Anubis is a joke, it just does calculations, playwright can easily pass as a real browserI have no idea how cloudflare does it, but I am assuming some complicated timing attacks using the Canvas widget (because playwright is headless)
>>106517353No :^)
>>106517446But why do we have to click on that box? I guess it's to make us used to click on something and later we are expected to click on "yes, browser, give this website my digital ID". I hope all of big tech will burn.
>>106517671Not only is Nano a robot but reCraptcha is a computer ("bot"). Computers demand from us that we prove that we are human.
The mark of the beast
I wonder who's fault this is :-)
>>106517711whose?
>>106517669"Click on that box."
>>106517798Lmao
>>106517448You can use their captcha tool without using Cloudflare for anything else on your site, and if you do so they don't MITM your connections. Instead the user just loads their JS and they can slurp in every other input, mouse movement, or piece of information on the page that way :^)>>106517669If your behavior on the page is already sufficiently human-like, sometimes you don't need to click the box at all.
>>106517669Some javascript can only be run on click.>>106517353>every websiteYou don't need websites, chud. Just use our app.
>>1065177314chan can take at least 90% of the credit for this. both for the proliferation of crowdsourced ddos for teh lulz (chanology, loic etc) but also ddos for profit (LulzSec and copycats).the web used to use readable words as captchas before 4chan's Operation ReNigger. cloudflare built a 70 billion dollar business on the back of teenage /b/tards breaking websites for fun.
>>106518554>Some javascript can only be run on click.yes it's that. very dark pattern on cloudflares part.
>>106517353Loading the 4chan captcha literally freezes my browser when I have to do the cloudflare pow. I'll never post again.
>>106517446>Anubis is a joke, it just does calculations, playwright can easily pass as a real browserI don't think it's meant to fully stop bots (though no doubt some people use it thinking so), but just make it more expensive to scrape, basic proof of work type stuff to slow down spamhow much more expensive that is in practice I do not know, might not be enough to matter to any bots
>>106517353When’s I’ll they update 4chanxt so it can delay posts even when this shit is active?
>>106517446I run a container that bypasses CloudFlare for my *arr setup. It’s trivially easy, just takes a bit of extra work, and it’s work most scrapers can’t be bothered doing
>>106517353we didn't bully the faggots enough. i told you all that this would happen.
>>106517669They measure your mouse pointer movement to check if it moves in a human like pattern
>>106519805How do you do it?
>>106519569I mean most foss pages deal with llm scrapers, and those have entire datacenters around them.It is just that most scrapers don't use playwright or browsers with javascript
>>106517353Time to go outside and touch grass
>>106517353When will we get a firefox extension that bypasses this shit
>>106519569>but just make it more expensive to scrape, basic proof of work type stuff to slow down spamThere was some blog article an anon posted in another thread about anubis that disproved this, but unfortunately I don't remember how to find. The tl;dr of it is that the anubis proof of work actually isn't that expensive and ironically there's a script that can solve the anubis proof of work faster than your browser can. https://github.com/sleeyax/anubis-solver/blob/main/README.md
>>106519569>>106521357Found the article actually. It was cited on the wikipedia page about anubis: https://lock.cmpxchg8b.com/anubis.html
>>106521385>>106521357Yes theoretically anubis is unfeasible and retarded. But in practice, like 90% of bots are built by jeets and those bots for some reason or the other get stuck on anubis screen.
>>106520871do they actually, or is it just hearsay? that meme originated from google's nocaptcha recaptcha back in the day, but here we're talking about cloudflare, which is a different company with a different productmakes me want to try it out by writing a simple violentmonkey script that would detect the checkbox and send the desired click coordinates to an autohotkey script which would then move the cursor and click the mouse button at the OS level.
>>106517353As a synthetic human these will never stop being hilarious to me. I'm machine head, better than all the rest.
>>106521434Eventually one jeet will figure it out and teach all the other jeets, but anubis will still be used because of the placebo effect
>>106521456I admit I am not entirely sure. All I know is I tried a script that would querySelector the checkbox every 50 ms and call the click() method and that didn't work, so they do something with the pointer to at least verify that it is actually above the checkmark when clicked.
>>106519583Just click on Original form and "Get captcha" that way. The quick reply will start working again then.
>>106521357>The tl;dr of it is that the anubis proof of work actually isn't that expensiveYou know that's configurable, right?The point of it isn't that it's expensive though, it's that keeps out the lowest common denominator. All those AI crawlers aren't solving this shit or if they are then it slows them down sufficiently enough to not bring your web server to its knees since they typically aren't using cookies and will therefore have to solve one challenge per HTTP request.
>>106521506I think that while most modern scrapers don't use javascript (therefore they cannot scrape the server), they do use cookie jars at least.
>>106521615I guess what I should have said is they typically don't have long-lived sessions so they're going to be solving new challenges all of the time.
>>106521490Thank you!
