> In any case - I think we all agree that there is a serious problem here
and we should involve our communities and not just have backroom
communications that do not result in differences for users. There are
millions of impacted users who are being censored from reading websites
because of a combination of issues - every single day.
I don't agree with your characterization of this as "censoring". That
implies an active desire to prevent people from reaching certain types of
content. Given all that we've done to uphold free speech in the face of a
barrage of criticism I think your use of the word "censor" is unwarranted.
> I encourage you to use the Tor Browser for a week and report back to us
about how well it works for you. If your experience is completely
different from the rest of us, we'd very much like to learn about the
different factors in your web surfing habits.
I did this three weeks ago. In addition the entire company was forced for
30 days to see CAPTCHAs any time they visited a site using CloudFlare
while in our offices. Doing so caused us to fix lots of problems with the
way the CAPTCHA was implemented. I also personally worked on the code that
deals with prevention of a CAPTCHA when the circuit changes and fixed a
bug that was preventing it working correctly.
