Comment (by anoncatsperson):

 Hi there all.

 Average user here with moderate security knowledge. I registered (through
 1 captcha and 7 on relogging in :/). Came in because I follow ioerror on
 twitter and have long been annoyed by CF in my day-to-day Tor usage. Of
 course its double-plus ungood for more normal users; I know this because
 when I try to get people to use Tor people really get turned off by doing
 these constantly since alot of popular sites utilize CF. I know I often
 just don't want to deal with doing them and holding my breath that I get
 through. Anecdotally, i've participated in a research project about Tor
 users awhile ago and that was my one complaint. Anyways, I will keep using
 Tor because I know better, but more average people might not in this
 regard. I hope someone comes up with a good solution to the Lament
 Configuration that is CF Captcha, but i'm not holding my breath. Thanks
 for reading and big ups to everyone fighting for the user.
