That effectively breaks the site for anyone using a text-only browser
or for anyone who (wisely) uses a browser add-on like NoScript. [1]

while it's all nice to get upset about no text browsers and needing
javascript and what not... err, I'm not seeing captchas from a variety
of vantage points, so maybe this is something nearer to the OP and
less of an 'all over' problem?


Its a ToR thing. You get hit by captchas when you aproach from a ToR
exit node.

I think ToR users are fine with that (generally speaking).

I don't understand why you need JS for presenting a basic captcha. For
instance recaptcha doesn't need plugins:
