It's Anubis and it's actually cool and loved project here. It's an open-source Captcha that filters out bots, and it doesn't track you around the web, unlike Go

  Cool, and loved by some. Annoying and disliked by others. I understand why people choose it, but if I see the catgirl I close the tab - same is I get the test from cloudflare.

    Yep, but it's their freedom -- website authors have freedom to designe websites however they choose, and we as consumers have freedom to not go there. I was startled by the girl the first time as well, but once I learned what it is, I accepted it. Like a garden gnome on someone's front yard.

    > Annoying and disliked by others > if I see the catgirl I close the tab Isn't it easier to just .. start loving it instead?

  > and loved project here You may want to check upthread how loved it is :) I, for one, don't hate it, but I hate what it represents and see its existence (rather, the reason for its existence) as a defeat for the web.
