This post introduces two new capabilities for Cloudflare Waiting Room: the integration of an invisible Turnstile challenge to quantify bot traffic within the queue, and the Infinite Queue feature for Advanced Waiting Rooms, which redirects failing bot traffic to a custom page to waste their resources.
