[Bug 1599241] [NEW] recaptcha for anonymous comments on public pages

 

Public bug reported:

While it was imperative to give public a voice if desired on selected
public page, the fact that comments are anonymous let spammers do their
unwanted actions.

It was added in https://bugs.launchpad.net/mahara/+bug/547384 the
necessity to set a recaptcha feature in implementing public comment. I
has not been done.

Hence the request :

If public comment is allowed on a page and the visitor is not
authenticated, there should be a recaptcha feature to limit spam.
