How to enable Private Access Tokens in iOS 16 and stop seeing CAPTCHAs

What's this blog post about?

Apple's latest operating system, iOS 16, introduces a new feature that eliminates the need for CAPTCHAs by enabling Private Access Tokens (PAT). This technology automatically validates users as humans without requiring them to complete a CAPTCHA or provide personal data. The collaboration between Cloudflare and industry leaders extends the Privacy Pass protocol with support for cryptographic tokens, simplifying application security for developers and enhancing privacy for users. With PATs incorporated into Cloudflare's Managed Challenge platform, customers can improve their visitors' browsing experience on supported devices without compromising on privacy.
