I’m really frustrated with the Captcha things to prove you are human (1 Viewer)

[athenaaa]

I was trying to vote for something on the Mnet Plus app and it wouldn’t let me do it cause I couldn’t figure out the Captcha. It was where you’re supposed figure out which images are a silhouette but my eyes couldn’t decipher it. After 15 minutes of trying I decided to check out this accessibility thing that allows you to bypass the Captcha. It didn’t wanna work so I guess no voting for me ​

I’ve had that too, I spent a good 15 minutes trying to do the stupid click all squares with a traffic light stuff and the accessibility thing wasn’t working. I got it to work in the browser though. You might actually remember that because it was when we were going to play Stardew together

Oh so thats what was happening
I do understand the frustration and it really sucks that things are supposed to be accessible when they very clearly are not

I had a image captcha that wouldn't work so I switched to the audio option and that worked for me.

It's so annoying. I can not stand it at all

i did hear that they aren't really testing your answers, but also your behaviour on the page before and after completing it? idk how true that is dont quote me on that

I once tried the audio thing on the Steam app and it wouldn’t work. But when I tried the audio version on the browser site for Steam it did. So it seems that there are cases where the audio unfortunately doesn’t work

I’ve heard the same, specifically to check how you behave before the “click this check box to prove you’re not a robot”. Which I guess could make sense, it would seem a bit too easy to hack otherwise

Also I found this just now and it seems relevant

You're not a robot? Do they really believe that today's AI technology wouldn't be capable of recognizing and solving random captchas?

Why CAPTCHAs have gotten so difficult

Demonstrating you’re not a robot is getting harder and harder

In 2024, Google pitted one of its machine learning algorithms against humans in solving the most distorted text CAPTCHAs: the computer got the test right 99.8 percent of the time, while the humans got a mere 33 percent.
