Comment (by woswos):

 I did additions to the [https://github.com/woswos/Cloudflare-CAPTCHA-
 Monitoring/ repository] I mentioned in comment:14 and I deployed the code
 to a cloud server, specifically the `automated_fetcher_influxdb` example.

 Now, the server is fetching [https://captcha.wtf/ captcha.wtf] &
 [https://exit11.online/ exit11.online] pages and their combinations with &
 without the Tor browser at 15 minutes intervals. The full list of URLs
 tested is [https://github.com/woswos/Cloudflare-CAPTCHA-
 Monitoring/blob/master/examples/automated_fetcher_influxdb.py here].
 Later, the results are sent to a time series data oriented InfluxDB
 database.

 I created a Grafana dashboard at [http://dashboard.captcha.wtf/
 dashboard.captcha.wtf] to analyze and visualize the collected data. You
 can visit the dashboard to see the data collected so far. I will add more
 panels and analysis to the dashboard as I implement more metrics to track.

 ''Note:'' captcha.wtf & exit11.online websites and the
 `automated_fetcher_influxdb` code are not hosted on the same server. They
 all have different IP addresses if anyone is wondering.
