OpenWrt One router page is blocked by Anubis proof-of-work anti-scraping challenge

The page for “OpenWrt One – Open Hardware Router” is not accessible because the site is showing an Anubis anti-bot challenge. The notice says Anubis uses proof-of-work, inspired by Hashcash, to make large-scale scraping more expensive while remaining tolerable for individual users.

The page reflects a broader shift toward defensive web infrastructure as site operators respond to aggressive AI scraping. Proof-of-work challenges may reduce server strain, but they can also create friction for legitimate users, especially those using privacy or JavaScript-blocking tools.
