See how Qwant (a "privacy respecting" search engine) treats Tor users
Qwant sometimes hits Tor users with this puzzle after they submit a query. Then after solving the puzzle, they’re brought back to an empty form so they must re-type their query.

Which one of those squares is supposed to be unique though? They all have a unique color, so maybe it doesn’t even matter which one you click?

My mom ever told me. This human/bot dysphoria is causing me some very conflicting emotions.
TheButtonJustSpins, Shit, so am i.
Edit: maybe the space around the squares is the unique shape? Since there’s only one of those, but the squares aren’t unique.
Edit 2: maybe the three squares count as one unique symbol?
kostel_thecreed, Duckduckgo has started this too. Very annoying.
Edit: just realised this post was from 3 years ago… I don’t know why this popped up lol.
possiblylinux127, I’ve started to notice several old posts are now doing that. I wonder if its a bug
