Cool, and loved by some. Annoying and disliked by others.
I understand why people choose it, but if I see the catgirl I close the tab - same is I get the test from cloudflare.
Yep, but it's their freedom -- website authors have freedom to designe websites however they choose, and we as consumers have freedom to not go there.
I was startled by the girl the first time as well, but once I learned what it is, I accepted it. Like a garden gnome on someone's front yard.

I, for one, don't hate it, but I hate what it represents and see its existence (rather, the reason for its existence) as a defeat for the web.
