I visit trakt maybe once a week and every time I have to go through cloudflare captchas first to get to the site. They ask me to pick boats or bicycles or whatever on two pages of tiny images I can’t even see well, and then once more - maybe because I screw up the first time, I don’t know. Getting to a site shouldn’t be this tedious. I know other sites are protected by cloudflare and they don’t have these issues. Maybe something can be done about it?
What country are you in? Cloudflare is aggressive in certain countries where they detect a lot of threats or if they determine your computer has security threats. If you have a static IP address, we might be able to improve things, please email support that info.
I’m in Russia. But, as I said, I don’t have this experience with other sites using cloudflare.
I’ll contact support, thanks.
yeah that Russia probably is a red flag for them.
A lot of attackes and DDOS come from your country unfortunately and maybe your ISP is in blacklist for that reason. Are you at home or at work ? a static IP will help a lot!
At work where you have one NAT ip for the internet for hundreds of employees can trigger the cloudflare.
Me at home never had the captcha, at work i have it almost 50% of the time.
And yes it is stupid, i mean always bicycles ?!?!? what is with that ??? and they are very tiny and i think only a robot AI can solve this not a human eye.
I’m at home with a static IP.
We’d like to try out a new feature: Privacy Pass Extensions
- Chrome: Privacy Pass - Chrome Web Store
- Firefox: Privacy Pass – Get this Extension for 🦊 Firefox (en-US)
We’d love feedback as to how this works for you.
Used it for a couple of years now - has always worked fine for me, when I use it.
I think that CloudFlare has gotten more stringent in Russia and China, and they’ve limited the length of time between verifications.
I don’t think that Canada and the US have the same restrictions.
