    I built Nocaptcha after getting frustrated with traditional CAPTCHAs both as a user and developer. WebAuthn passkeys offered a promising alternative that's both more secure and user-friendly. What makes Nocaptcha different: - Uses WebAuthn standard instead of puzzle-solving - No need for users to remember passwords or solve puzzles - Open source Current limitation: Working with W3C WebAuthn Community Group on true passkey disposal for this use case. Looking for feedback particularly on: 1. Integration experience 2. User experience compared to traditional CAPTCHAs

    This is a small PoC Python project for web server access logs analyzing to classify and dynamically block bad bots, such as L7 (application-level) DDoS bots, web scrappers and so on. We'll be happy to gather initial feedback on usability and features, especialy from people having good or bad experience wit bots. *Requirements* The analyzer relies on 3 Tempesta FW specific features which you still can get with other HTTP servers or accelerators: 1. JA5 client fingerprinting (https://tempesta-tech.com/knowledge-base/Traffic-Filtering-b...). This is a HTTP and TLS layers…

    Hi HN, I’m Arun, 17, from India. While my friends scroll Instagram and Snapchat, I’ve been obsessed with building something different. I don’t want a regular job — I want to push technology. So I built WhiteLotus — a social app where every account is face-verified. No bots, no fake profiles, no spam. Just real people. Core ideas: AI-powered face verification (1 account per person) 1-on-1 private chats (only with friends) Photo-based posting (keep it visual, keep it real) “Kingdoms” (Fire, Water, Earth, Air tribes) for community vibes Leveling system that shows how active and trustworthy you…

    We made human-use. Similar to how browser-use connects agents to the web, human-use connects agents to people all over the world in real-time using the Rapidata API. This allows the LLM to crowdsource human feedback and insights when it deems necessary. Free to use for anyone, you can enable your agent to use humans in real-time to: - Do preference research - Check for hallucinations - Capture sentiment - Get feedback - etc. Whatever you would want from humans. We expose certain parts of the Rapidata API to the agent through the MCP server framework. Additionally we provide a custom client.…

    Hi everyone, nice to meet you and I am a newcomer of HN. I have made a binary tool Aih that could communicate with Bard, ChatGPT, Claude, and Llama(HuggingChat) from the terminal. https://github.com/Databingo/aih Since CAPTCHA challenges and bots detecting have become increasingly difficult, I've changed my strategy from hacking the APIs to simulating a real browser's action. The tool first takes the logged-in cookies of Google, ChatGPT, Claude, and HuggingChat accounts from the real Chrome browser, then it opens an invisible instance of Chromium for communication, then…

    I've been researching the bot & proxies space for years. I slowly incubated a service to protect public forms, contents and APIs. It recenty reached a few million daily requests and I now dare to bring it to light. Truesign detects bots, proxies/vpns and fake emails, through a single request from the browser, without challenges or user interaction. It can block the request based on rules you choose, or grant a token with encrypted information about the visitor for you to decide. I created a few pages to showcase how it works: - https:/demo.truesign.ai/protected-form : a form…
