 > Are Tor users seeing easier to pass CAPTCHAs now?

 I believe for the first time ever I got through one in a single pass a few
 minutes ago, where it used to take me two passes at a minimum before
 (~past year, probably since forever). Small datapoint, but it sounds
 related.

 Side question: Would you mind pointing me to some clarifications regarding
 the difficulties around shielding only the sites that are under attack and
 leaving the rest open? I've went through this thread, two HN threads and
 CF's blog -- given the large amount of discussion I feel like I might have
 missed it. If not, would you elaborate a little bit on that here or
 elsewhere? I saw the question pop up quite a few times and I'm interested
 myself.

 Thank you.
