Anti-bot Verification Page Blocks Access to EUECJ Case C2426PPU
Summary
The BAILII Europe Recent Decisions feed entry for EUECJ case C2426PPU displays an anti-bot verification page (Anubis) instead of the actual case content. Anubis uses a Proof-of-Work scheme similar to Hashcash to deter mass scraping by AI companies. Users must disable JavaScript-disabling plugins like JShelter to access the underlying case.
“Anubis uses a Proof-of-Work scheme in the vein of Hashcash, a proposed proof-of-work scheme for reducing email spam.”

You are seeing this because the administrator of this website has set up Anubis to protect the server against the scourge of AI companies aggressively scraping websites. This can and does cause downtime for the websites, which makes their resources inaccessible for everyone.
Anubis is a compromise. Anubis uses a Proof-of-Work scheme in the vein of Hashcash, a proposed proof-of-work scheme for reducing email spam. The idea is that at individual scales the additional load is ignorable, but at mass scraper levels it adds up and makes scraping much more expensive.
Ultimately, this is a placeholder solution so that more time can be spent on fingerprinting and identifying headless browsers (EG: via how they do font rendering) so that the challenge proof of work page doesn't need to be presented to users that are much more likely to be legitimate.
Please note that Anubis requires the use of modern JavaScript features that plugins like JShelter will disable. Please disable JShelter or other such plugins for this domain.
