> the only individuals that see the CAPCHA page mentioned, are users of Cloudflare's DNS services

I don't think this is true. I run my own recursive DNS resolver, and get a CAPTCHA when visiting archive.today.

I use my ISP's default DNS servers and have consistently gotten the CAPTCHA page for weeks now. The CAPTCHA seems to be broken too, rendering archive.today entirely inaccessible.

Someone has suggested that CAPTCHA is broken for everyone in Finland.

Not surprising considering the service is operated by Russia.

Seems to be the case in Estonia as well.
