Other than making the web tedious to use, my biggest CAPTCHA complaint is that it puts the main providers in a position to monitor everyone’s web use. The blog post doesn’t address that, but it does say this:
No third-party services
Perhaps they mean it’s self-hosted? That would be very welcome. It might require open source code to catch on, since many site owners are uncomfortable running mystery code on our servers. That would be very welcome, too.
I wonder if it’s really true that this practice is particularly prevalent in JavaScript development or just a false impression caused by it being one of the most, if not the most, used programming language
The Node package manager is used in some web applications and has a very trusting distribution model, but it’s not particularly relevant to what I wrote (red herring fallacy), and GP’s phrasing alone is enough to identify them as a heckler. Please don’t feed the trolls.

Here’s hoping it’s good.
And yet Node.js exists and flourishes.
What do you mean by that, isn’t node open source as well?
The joke is a lot of devs import random node modules hahaha

is-oddhas entered the chatis-evenhas too because it had to be a dependency 💀The Node package manager is used in some web applications and has a very trusting distribution model, but it’s not particularly relevant to what I wrote (red herring fallacy), and GP’s phrasing alone is enough to identify them as a heckler.

True that, still, I was genuinely curious
