Feature Request: Integrate Cloudflare Turnstile for a Superior Anti-Spam Solution

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I'd like to clarify a few points about Cloudflare Turnstile, especially regarding its cost and suitability for business use, even on the free tier.
First, your estimate of $1,000 a month for Cloudflare Turnstile seems to be significantly off the mark for typical usage. Turnstile, in its core functionality for website protection against bots, is completely free for all users, regardless of whether it's for personal or business use, under Cloudflare's standard plans (including the Free plan). There are no per-request charges or hidden fees for Turnstile itself. The pricing you might be seeing for Cloudflare services would likely be for much broader enterprise-level offerings like advanced WAF, DDoS protection, or Argo Smart Routing, which are separate from Turnstile's bot-mitigation service.

This is a crucial distinction and a significant benefit of Turnstile compared to reCAPTCHA. Just like reCAPTCHA has a widely accessible free tier for most users, Turnstile operates on a similar model, making it a viable and attractive option for a vast majority of websites, including those running booking platforms for businesses.
Regarding the terms of service for business use on the free tier: Cloudflare's Free plan explicitly states it can be used for commercial purposes. There are no restrictions within their standard terms of service that prevent a business from using Turnstile (or other free Cloudflare services) for their website operations. Many small to medium-sized businesses, and even larger ones, leverage Cloudflare's free services to enhance their website performance and security without incurring direct costs for these specific features.

Beyond the cost, the privacy benefits of Turnstile are a major differentiator. Unlike reCAPTCHA, Turnstile does not track user behavior across the internet. It focuses on non-intrusive machine learning to identify bots without requiring users to solve puzzles or sending their browsing data to Google for analysis. This privacy-centric approach is increasingly important for businesses that prioritize user trust and data privacy.

From my own experience, I've implemented Turnstile on all my sites where it's possible, even on the free tier, and I've found it to be remarkably effective at blocking spam – often more so than reCAPTCHA, and with a much better user experience. It truly offers a 'free as in beer' solution that rivals reCAPTCHA's capabilities while offering superior privacy.
Perhaps others who use Turnstile for their business websites on Cloudflare's Free plan can also chime in to share their experiences and confirm that it's a perfectly viable and cost-effective solution for protecting business-oriented platforms like BookingPress.
