About this Issue

While Google's ReCaptcha v3 is fine, what about people from places where there are US sanctions still enforced (e.g. Iraq, etc.)? If I integrate with Google ReCaptcha v3, would need to show data privacy consent prompts on first-time visits to comply with GDPR (among other privacy laws), which means another chaotic editing of client-side code, A/B testing, and long days of debugging?

I would like to suggest adding hCaptcha integration, because:

• I don't need to worried about implementing data privacy consent prompts again
• Google is under increased scrutiny on antitrust investigations in the EU, US and others.

Any Issues during Migration

• The free version of hCaptcha is only backward-compatible with ReCaptcha v2, while the enterprise edition is backward-compatible with ReCaptcha v2 and v3.
• If we use hCaptcha is in invisible mode, we need to add this little snippet into client/components/hCaptcha.tsx. (see FAQ entry)
