Cloudflare is working with the makers of Chrome, Edge, and Firefox on a new way for websites to tell whether incoming traffic is legitimate – without resorting to the usual mix of CAPTCHAs, logins, and extra tracking.
The system is called Private Access Control Tokens, or PACT, and it arrives at a time when bots have surpassed human traffic online.
I had to solve two captchas last time I tried ordering groceries online.
Same here. I’m just going back to cash.
All of this “artificial intelligence security” just gets in the way of basic legal transactions, but all the yes men running it are too spineless to tell their bosses and shareholders how much money they’re losing.
