Good idea - but why? If the purpose is to make sure someone's human, bots are pretty good at cracking captchas. If it's to slow someone down, help them think before they post, then fine, but why a captcha? They are really annoying

Same concern - I'm working on getting some info removed from mastodon. it's terrifying how hard it is to get someone (volunteer mods) to actually remove something... This sort of case makes me an advocate for centralized access to

Really interesting legal question - "Seems like the ball is with Google at the moment, the exposed data is on their GCP servers. So, they can figure out next steps." is a comment above. How will the chain of insecure infrastructur

Actually working on that project right now - www.thekanary.com. Super early stage but have a big list of brokers and opt out links that I'm automating. Would love early feedback.
