I was concerned mainly as by having a third party gate keeper, which
seems to only want Tails or TBB users to type into a CAPTCHA is a good
way of working out the identity of the connection. I might be wrong in
my assumption.
Though if one is doing any sensitive internet work do not wish to go
through a gatekeeper type system, then this seems to me to give away
some little piece of the identity.
Anyhow I just won't use the site or sites with cloudflare umbrella
checking out TOR connections.
