What is Privacy Pass?

Privacy Pass is a helpful Chrome extension designed with the aim of providing users with unlinkable cryptographic tokens for websites that support their protocol. It aids in anonymous authorization on such sites, specifically those protected by Cloudflare and hCaptcha. The purpose of this extension is to replace the need for solving CAPTCHAs by letting users redeem tokens, thus saving time and enhancing user experience.
