Captchas - Tumblr Posts

A rant: I loathe CAPTCHAS with a burning passion. They used to be fine but now they're nearly impossible to solve. I cannot tell you how many minutes of my life I have wasted trying to click on images of crossroads, motorcycles or traffic lights, only to do it "wrong" and have to start over again. 😭 I cannot tell you how many times my boomer parents rang me saying that the CAPCHA won't go away and they can't access a website or even log into an account. I cannot tell you how many times I gave up entirely on accessing a website because the CAPTCHA asked me to look at this incomprehensible image of letters and numbers mixed together, and I couldn't do it because I'm visually impaired. Don't get me started on the AI-generated images they seem to use in CAPCTHAS more, nowadays.

There have to be better ways to determine whether a user is a human, without infringing on their privacy OR frustrating the blood out of them.
