I’m getting really tired of “verify you’re not a bot” checks everywhere.

I understand these checks help prevent bots, but they seem to appear on so many websites now. Does anyone else find them frustrating?

It's easy to block most bots. It's impossible to block bots that target you specifically. I'm not blocking any bots on my websites, I like it better to optimize performance so that I can serve them all and have a lot of headroom
