    There are some really awful captchas out there. I miss the days of just typing out some stretched and tilted numbers and letters.

      OTOH there are captchas that you just need to check a box today. It boggles my mind this is not more widespread.

      “No, let’s make our users play a fucking puzzle for a minute before granting them access”.

        Of course, they want you to train their AI for them.

        But checking a box only works if they can somehow determine you’re human (cookies, crawlies, i dunno). Which may work if you’re only using uBlock, but not with a hardened user.js.

        Those captchas only work because you previously have correctly solved a captcha and it saved your session. It is a credential-less login.
