There is no 'challenge page', just blocking with 'Oh noes!'

From your answer to last issue: 'You may want to enable first-party JavaScript or add an exception for extensions like JShelter. Anubis requires users to solve a series of math problems in order to proceed to use the website. This is intended to be easy for an individual user to pass, but it does not scale to the sheer volume of torment we see from the mass scraper bots.'

There is NO challenge page like captchas or math puzzles, just a block. Even blocking reporting issues to gitlab.gnome.org. That's a definitively bad approach.

I do definitively NOT!!! want to enable any active component allowing access to my device for software of that low 'new' quality!!!

A new version of firefox-ESR made it for the moment. However I consider it absolutely unacceptable behavior to lock innocent people out of their data - their property!!! - without providing reasonable, comprehensible reasons ( your browser is too old, only xxx from version yy and zzz from version aaa work or similar ) and thus providing help to remedy the situation. And if this is not done automatically, it should at least be communicated in a support request. Cheeky! And what idiot thought scrapers wouldn't come up with newer signatures much faster than me? May Trump come over Canada.

I am also having this problem.
Access Denied: error code 303d2f312c0de89740c4c1086a291c265999d68f9c8fff4bd4fede338ab2b5d6.
Clicking Try Again results in nothing happening.
I am using a Gnome project called Icon-Preview, and in it's "About" dialogue is a link to the project's Gitlab.
I'm trying find documentation on using the app, and I cannot because of this.
What can I do to make this stop?

Hi, see #126, you may need to update the version of chrome you are using (old versions of chrome are used by the blocking rules that gnome configured) or contact your browser vendor to update the version of chrome it is using. What browser are you using?

The math problems aren't CAPTCHA-style. They are SHA hashes that it makes your browser compute.
