Anubis rarely ever annoys me (I still prefer it over cloudflare's Mitm) but this specific visit feels almost vindictive. It used half my CPU cores at full blast for three straight minutes.
It seems to be effective since I can't really "bypass" it with extensions, so AI crawlers probably can't either, but damn there really should be an option to complete a manual captcha or email the administrators to complain.
As I'm typing this the challenge is still running xD
Good to see it's not just me. I kept receiving heat (pun intended) whenever I criticized these "Proof-of-work anti-bot solutions", now I finally know I'm not alone.
Like an unskippable Youtube ad, we're supposed to sit three minutes while these "solutions" dangerously burn our CPU regardless of whether it's an old CPU, and without asking our consent beforehand (!!!). At least Youtube ads don't (usually) burn the CPU the same way.
And, no, it's nowhere close to being infuriating to the supposedly intended targets of Anubis. OpenAI and the alike are likely laughing of Xe Iaso while they all burn more coal and increase the hyperscale data centers, with Anubis being just a pesky, insignificant pebble inside businessmen shoes. Meanwhile, we, the human users caught in this crossfire, including me with my poor decade-old Acer ES1-572 laptop, we can't afford a new machine should Anubis, Cloudflare and other similar "anti-bot solutions" end up "weighting" our CPU too much it finally makes its way to the underworld with no one being legally liable for the physical damages caused by such algorithms.
If only Anubis, supposedly "different" from Cloudflare's corporate nature, had a "Proceed or Leave" button or checkbox to start the "weighting your heart" thing, I wouldn't be complaining or actively boycotting websites using "PoW anti-bot solutions" (I made myself a Firemonkey userscript to speedrun a
window.close()for pages whose title is one of the "Just a moment..." or "Making sure you're not a bot!", because neither Xe Iaso nor Matthew Prince nor the webmasters using their "PoW anti-bot solutions" would buy me a new laptop if mine eventually died from facing heavy cryptographic computing while my CPU was already struggling with a Blender rendering process in the background). But, no, it's no different than the corporate they swear to be fighting against ("something something one who fights with monsters should be careful lest they thereby become a monster themselves")...!mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world
