In the last few weeks, i have encountered captchas almost every session i go onto Youtube. Is this a consequence of the decision to raise the required bandwidth bar for "fast" relays, so that more connections come from fewer exits?
Or is it a policy change at Google? I dont understand why a logged in user should have to go through captchas every session, even if their ip address changes. In TBB the captchas can timeout before we even get a chance to see them. Secondly, if they are going to use them, i wish they would pick something a human can read which this often isnt: http://postimg.org/image/4fnpojpu1/ or use a different method such as math questions or pick-a-kitten. Thirdly, i started seeing these notices about reading from a canvas recently: http://postimg.org/image/wxto55mfl/ Is this due to a TBB missing feature or did Youtube use something in HTML5 on purpose that violates privacy, e.g. is this a replacement for the evil hidden Adobe flash storage? Basically these changes plus the inability to view or even download videos with ads on them (Adobe Flash only), means they are squeezing out Tor users, and anyone else concerned with privacty and security. It bodes ill for TBB's uptake by the masses. -- tor-talk mailing list - tor-talk@lists.torproject.org To unsusbscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
