    You should see how bad the Walmart website can get. They have this “press and hold” thing that basically shows up every page refresh when I’m at the store checking my shopping list.

    And it’s not a “press for a second”, it’s like 5-10 seconds… every. single. time.

    I mean, if they don’t want me to be a customer anymore, find another way to tell me!

      I wonder if it’s a mobile thing because I have the same issue on my tablet (which I completely gave up using for Walmart) but never on my PC.

    twitter loves that one, I’m glad the artists I follow are all making bluesky and misskey accounts.

      you’re at least a decade late for that concern. why do you think chatgpt is so good at solving recaptcha?

          …I know.

          What i’m saying is that Chatgpt is good at captcha shit, likely because it was fed the data from all the captcha we’ve done.

          And I know captcha is different from recaptcha, if you want to be pedantic, which you appear to…

    Thank God there are others who have found these stupid captchas. I thought i was being flagged as a boarderline bot when nobody knew what I was talking about and assumed something completely different.

    I’ve gotten this a single time before. When I realized it was 10 questions, I just backed out of that bullshit

    Maybe I’m the crazy person, but those types of captchas don’t bother me. I’ll gladly take them over doing a normal captcha on TOR while trying to log in to certain services, only to have entered the wrong password and wasted maybe 5-10 minutes of my time per attempt (usually 2 or more attempts needed).

      10 captcha tests is a little ridiculous imo for any situation. I’d just leave the service if I saw that.

      I think they are tougher for people with poor spatial reasoning. I don’t know what it looks like to them, but all the ones I see people complain about look just as super obvious as all the other ones to me.

    I use an VPN and its way worse. It is actually slightly better when I switched to a dedicated IP VPN. So, it would ask for the CAPCHA once and then never again. For those wondering, I use Torguard via wireguard on my PFsense.

    I wonder how much they get paid for training the model, or if it’s free in exchange for the captcha service.

    You have not seen captchas if you have not seen TOR Marketplace logins. Sometimes it takes me 5-7 tries to get in. After that I feel really human.

      Could you share more Information? How do these captchas look like and what are the tasks?

      I am just curious, as I probably won’t even lurk on these hidden services.

        They are a mix of small sorting games with a time limit and visual quizzes that can get really hard to solve. There was one where you have to rotate three small round pictures inside another picture to match the background picture that is basically just noise. Every market has its own multistep captcha system and they change quite a lot. Some are creative, some are just nightmare. The hardest ones are those where you have to solve multiple rotations of miniature „pictures“ that are like ultra close ups of things with an extreme compression and noise and somehow you have to decide if they are houses or bridges. The compression is so bad, you can barely even make out what those rotated 30x30 grey pixel smush are. And there are 6 of them you have to solve in a certain time. I ran into timeouts constantly and have to start over.

    And then you try the audio one and it’s completely impossible. One time we had 4 people trying to listen and guess what the answer was and we all got it wrong a dozen times before we got through.
