Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Given how common these CAPTCHAs are, it should be quite easy to verify if
 Google/ReCAPTCHA are in fact automatically blocking Tor exits, and call
 them out publicly on their behavior should that be the case.  Site owners
 should be free to decide whether to block people coming from a Tor exit
 from accessing a service or not (and the Tor projects supplies tools to
 make this technically easy); this should never occur simply as a side-
 effect of a third-party service that's supposed to tell humans apart from
 robots/automated clients.
