Project mention: CAPTCHAs: 'a tracking cookie farm for profit masquerading as a security service' | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-02-10
I've seen a PoW CAPTCHA https://github.com/mCaptcha/mCaptcha and at the time it did not make any sense to me. I would still get spam, just a tiny bit slower, and spammers would have to expend more resources for just my site, which would barely register on their bill.
I bet that requiring JS would stop more spam than the PoW itself. Can anyone who tried it chime in?
