Summary

Cloudflare has launched two new solutions to improve the user experience of its Waiting Room feature: Turnstile and Session Revocation. The Turnstile challenge is an invisible widget that detects bot traffic, while the Infinite Queue feature sends bots to a virtual queue where they are unable to progress without completing a challenge. These features work together to block bots from joining the queue, reducing wait times for humans and preventing inventory hoarding by sophisticated bots. Additionally, Session Revocation allows origins to terminate user sessions early via an HTTP header, improving throughput and minimizing wait times.
