Description
Describe the bug
I understand that this is designed to prohibit bots from scraping content or reading websites relentlessly. That said, I was just presented with a captcha asking that I "click anywhere inside the circle" to continue. I am blind and, as more and more of these automated bot protection systems are set up, this risks locking individuals with disabilities such as myself out of considerable parts of the internet.
Steps to reproduce
I sadly don't really have any. This just randomly occurred when trying to visit the D Language Wiki. I'm not sure what could've tripped it (I do have UBlock Origin with Firefox and strict privacy settings enabled, but Javascript is still active).
Expected behavior
There should be a way for individuals with disabilities to either bypass or inclusively follow the instructions of Anubis.
Your operating system and its version.
Windows 10 21H2 (AMD64) build 19044.6575
Your browser and its version.
Firefox 145
Additional context
Accessibility options could include some kind of audio code, or text prompt, or similar, but shouldn't require things like cookies due to stovepiping. HCaptcha tried this and to say that the disabled community despises them as a result is a bit of an understatement. The bypass method should work across both browsers and web app containers such as Electron. The method should also be enabled by default, since most people will probably forget to enable it.
As stated, an audio code, text prompt or similar would work just fine here. I am of course open to other methods for enabling individuals with disabilities to get around these as well.
