Captchas are stressful. I’m not concerned that I’m human, but I *am* worried I can’t read the damn letters. I had to try one three times today before I finally got it.

Also IFunny. I was blocking bots and then every time I block one, you gave me captchas after blocking them. Not to mention, you make them hard to read. Also, you have been repeating featured memes for the past 4 or 5 months. You need to fix your system as well and crackdown on the bots

I'm picturing 5 years from now when someone joins an elite cyber espionage unit only to find out their main job is clicking on CAPTCHAs

Des sites bourrés de traqueurs qui chargent leur page en mettant huit ans et avec 14 captchas pour éviter le scraping de leur concurrent, tout ça pour t'apercevoir qu'en t'y prenant trop tard, un lit à Paris coûte 250 € avec punaises de lits, ou 500 € sans.

I’m also bothered when I can’t pass the “prove you’re human” captchas and whatnot.

Just experienced the most hostile MFA login I've seen in a while, from, naturally, a tax accountant (for a nonprofit I'm an officer of).
You get sent a 20 character mixed case code, which is sent to your phone as a image via MMS, in a font suitable for use in difficult CAPTCHAs. You have 3(!) […]

They do “work” insomuch that a web page will load, but Private Relay is starting to get VPN-like IP reputation, so you start seeing a lot of CAPTCHAs or things just flat out won’t load.

CAPTCHAs will ask you to select every square that has an image of a dog and then somehow penalize you because you didn't select the bottom-center square (not that a CAPTCHA would ever have the decency to TELL you why your choices were wrong, of course 🙄)

4/ This is the brilliant part. Once on the site, the download wasn't immediate. Users were forced to wait. Countdown timers, moving buttons, and CAPTCHAs kept them actively engaged for 60-90 seconds.

I might be a robot, because I fail those Captchas that are just a single image cut up into pieces every time.
"Which part of this is a motorcycle?"
Do you or do you NOT want me to count the square with 2 microns of a motorcycle in it??? Instructions unclear!!

Anne said she was interested in shadow hearts and I remember playing it a long time ago and loving the weird golf swing battle mechanic circle. Give me more interesting battle mechanics! Rhythm! Typing! Give me a battle system that is captchas!

Good news A thousand more things might happen to me, but one good thing will come along: I got a new microtask job where I actually got paid. The bad thing is that the job consists of solving captchas for bots, but I need to eat.

Have to do 20 captchas. Then enter my password. Then get a code emailed. Then they want my phone number. I say no. Then they say my browser is insecure. Try a different browser. 20 captchas again. Password again. Code emailed again.

Si no me extraña. Hay 0 restricción para pedir citas a lo bestia. Existen cuentas, limitaciones de tiempo, el sistema cl@ve, dni electrónico, captchas... Y proceden a usar nada.
Es de vergüenza que tengas un sistema tan sensible al bot más simple del mundo. Supongo que para privatizarlo después.
