that's nice, but the whole reason recapcha and other ai training capchas exist is that it costs money to host and maintain those services and they're able to recoup those costs by harvesting and monetizing user data.

capchas literally do have to be boring dystopian bullshit because no one will pay for the alternative.

We need a Wolfenstein CAPTCHA that just asks "select all Nazis" to reiterate that being a Nazi is fucking bad.

this is cool but i feel it would be easily bypassable

I guess this just demonstrates that a fun kind of captcha could be made.

Awesome, need to incorporate this in my lemmy registrations.

Edit: never mind just saw the note about it not being secure lol

  1. "Click to Start" - clicking does nothing

  2. wouldn't this be easy for a bot to solve?

[–] ceddy@lemmy.ml 4 points 9 months ago
