@nixcraft Anubis is the website equivalent of hashcash for email.

It is sad that we have to waste computational cycles (meaning more electricity) to fight these things, but when they don't respect robots.txt there is little other choice.

@kln @nixCraft Honestly, I'd prefer Anubis everywhere over ReCaptcha. Even at it supposedly slowest (never experienced that; I use Gnome's gitlab, where I encountered it) it's still faster than solving 3 ReCaptchas in a row with those slowly fading images.
