Comment (by madD):

 @jgrahamc
 WHO say that ''there are estimated 285 million people visually impaired
 worldwide: 39 million are blind and 246 million have low vision''. If they
 want to enjoy the privacy of VPN or Tor, they are forced to take an Audio
 challenge (javascript only), in order to decrypt crappy telephone
 recordings of numbers (English only).

 Furthermore, people with motorics handicap, like Stephen Hawking, can't
 provide human-like mouse movements for reCAPTCHA v2, but don't know that
 they should turn off JS to get static challenge.

 What will CloudFlare advise to all of them?
