Google: implements an entire obfuscated VM with its own bytecode inside Javascript for their CAPTCHAs so that people cannot cheat it

YouTube-dl has a JavaScript interpreter written in 870 lines of Python
While they likely wouldn't do a zero-day, their JS files, particularly for automated captchas, do push the boundaries of whatever JS engine they're executed inside. See https://github.com/neuroradiology/InsideReCaptcha#the-analys... and note that this analysis is 8 years old. While there's minimal risk if you're either using a full-fledged modern JS engine or a limited-subset interpreter like the OP, an older or non-optimized spec-compliant JS engine might hit pathological performance cases and result in you DOSing yourself.

Get DCR onto a faucet by voting on this strawpoll for Autofaucet
So people voting for DCR are not allowed to protect their privacy with VPNs, must reveal their real IP address, and must allow proprietary, obfuscated, sophisticated Google reCAPTCHA to fingerprint the heck out of their devices.
