In some cases, [this will take 10 to 30 minutes to satisfy Google](https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/23840). | ![](https://codeberg.org/crimeflare/stop_cloudflare/media/branch/master/image/googlerecaptcha.jpg) | +| In the year 2020 Cloudflare switched from [Google's Recaptcha](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recaptcha) to [hCaptcha](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HCaptcha) as Google [intends to charge](https://professionalhackers.in/cloudflare-dumps-recaptcha-as-google-intends-to-charge-for-its-use/) for its use. Cloudflare told you they care your privacy(["it helps address a privacy concern"](https://blog.cloudflare.com/moving-from-recaptcha-to-hcaptcha/)) but this is obviously a lie. It is all about money. "[hCaptcha](https://www.hcaptcha.com/) allows websites to make money serving this demand while blocking bots and other forms of abuse" | ![](https://codeberg.org/crimeflare/stop_cloudflare/media/branch/master/image/fedup_fucking_hcaptcha.jpg) | +| From user's perspective, this doesn't change much.
