The Barrier‑Free Web Access Act is an accessibility‑focused framework created to eliminate traditional CAPTCHA systems that block people from accessing essential online services. Many websites still use image‑based puzzles, audio challenges, or distorted text that can be impossible for users with disabilities to complete.
This Act prohibits all traditional CAPTCHA systems and requires websites to use accessible, non‑interactive verification methods instead. These include passive systems such as device attestation, behavioral verification, Cloudflare Turnstile, and other methods that do not require the user to solve a challenge.
The goal of the Act is to ensure that everyone — including people with disabilities — can access essential online services without being blocked by inaccessible verification barriers.

Traditional CAPTCHA is prohibited in all contexts.
Only passive, transparent, non‑interactive verification systems may be used.
