<karolherbst> somebody already suggested that concept to me, but I wasn't aware what software there is
<karolherbst> but given that gitlab already relies on javascript, it might be good enough to deter bots and spammers as well

<pinchartl> karolherbst: have other options such as throttling http requests been considered ?
swatish2 has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
<karolherbst> yeah, but that doesn't really help
<karolherbst> they usually only create an account and then either spam on the profile for SEO or post comments
<karolherbst> regular user can generate more traffic easily
<karolherbst> my hope here is not that "solving a math problem" is the factor that helps, but more the "needs javascript"
<karolherbst> with gitlab you need javascript anyway
<karolherbst> and I hope if the problem is solved once a month or two weeks or whatever, normal users won't notice
<pinchartl> ah ok, I thought you wanted to use to block AI scraper bots, not spammers
<pinchartl> for spammers, yes, http throttling won't help
<karolherbst> well.. I'm sure it won't hurt to also block scraper bots :D
<karolherbst> just need to figure out what to do about indexing and such...
<pinchartl> the other option, of course, is to get rid of AI in the first place, but that may be a bit more difficult

<karolherbst> maybe it would be enough to only protect the login/register URL to deal with spam..
