Yeah so this mouse movement astrology is going to completely lock non-sighted/keyboard only users out of large swaths of the Internet isn't it.

I'm guessing it's going to lock the non-sighted//keyboard only users out of the anonymous Internet. I'm guessing if you log in and give up your anonymity they'll consider you not a bot.

If that's true, attackers just need to run their bots under registered throwaway accounts...

The account will require a phone number and the US is trying to move away from burner phones. As long as we don't commit thought crimes and we love Big Brother all will be well.

Why worry? Just send them a photo of your ID and you'll be fine. /s

I'd imagine that mouse movement is just one signal among many that's weighted appropriately, but I hope we get feedback from these users

I mean CF already forces 5 minutes of motorbike identification on anyone not in a whitelisted western country, so a small percentage of blind people is unlikely to worry them.

You’re confusing us with Google. We don’t have a visual CAPTCHA.

just like how smartphone developers, engineers locked people with no smartphone.Some of the users that can no longer get services are really old people, disabled. In some well developed places on earth, you can't even check in flights without a smartphone, it's not even possible to travel for them.

Yet all people are ok with it
