To solve it or not do not change that they have to use more resources for crawling, which is the objective here. And by contrast, the website sees a lot less load compared to before the use of Anubis. In any case, I see it as a win.
But despite that, it has its detractors, like any solution that becomes popular.
But let's be honest, what are the arguments against it?
It takes a bit longer to access for the first time? Sure, but that's not like you have to click anything or write anything.
It executes foreign code on your machine? Literally 90% of the web does these days. Just disable JavaScript to see how many website is still functional. I'd be surprised if even a handful does.
The only people having any advantages at not having Anubis are web crawler, be it ai bots, indexing bots, or script kiddies trying to find a vulnerable target.
