Just use trained hawks, comes with built in plausible deniability 😅

Read this article carefully and you can see the xenophobia etc. seeping out. He seems to think of himself or at least often presents himself as a US style libertarian, but evidently he is totally ok with xenophobia and other white supremacist extreme right-wing stuff…

The problem isn’t incoming spam, but rather not being able to send to the larger email providers because of arbitrary spamfiltering on their side.

An external email host. Life is too short to deal with frustrating email issues.

Anubis is not bad for privacy, but rather the opposite. Server admins explicitly chose it over commonly available alternatives to preserve the privacy of their visitors.

If you don’t like random Javascript execution, just install an allow-list extension in your browser 🤷

And no, it is not a PR slogan, it is the live experience of thousands of server admins (me included) that have been fighting with this for month now and are very grateful that Anubis has provided some (likely only temporary) relief from that.

And I don’t get what the point of an extra button would be when the result is exactly the same 🤷

Are you seriously complaining about an (entirely false) negative privacy aspect of Anubis and then suggest reCaptcha from Google is better?

Look, no one thinks Anubis is great, but often it is that or the website becoming entirely inaccessible because it is DDOSed to death by the AI scrapers.

They are much worse for accessibility, and also take longer to solve and are more distruptive for the majority of users.

Yes, because Cloudflare routinely blocks entire IP ranges and puts people into endless captcha loops. And it snoops on all traffic and collects a lot of metadata about all your site visitors. And if you let them terminate TLS they will even analyse the passwords that people use to log into the services you run. It’s basically a huge survelliance dragnet and probably a front for the NSA.

And it was/is for sure the lesser evil compared to what most others did: put the site behind Cloudflare.

I feel people that complain about Anubis have never had their server overheat and shut down on an almost daily basis because of AI scrapers 🤦
