I'd love to hear some commentary from someone involved in the business of bypassing captchas. I have to assume "google invisible captcha hack" is getting bid up right now.
- barbolo 10y agoEvery now and then I have to train models (mostly neural networks) that bypass captchas. My company provides web automation in Brazil, not for spam, not for marketing purposes. Sometimes the client has a website (like an intranet) that she wants to automate through screen scraping. I know it sounds stupid, but that is pretty frequent. The models are fast (most captchas solved under 100ms in AWS Lambda) and accurate (95 to 100%). I have about 40 different captchas being solved this way. My team is still working on a solution to nocaptcha recaptcha. The problem for me is not solving the challenges, but submitting them like a human would do. I'm progressing with chromium headless. As more and more sites add this captcha, I need to find a solution to automate it. And I'm confident I will find.
- turblety 10y agoMe too. If you want to spam or hack surely you'd just outsource the captcha solving to a cheaper country. Or even sites like 2captcha that give you 1000 solves for around 50c. You can still make a robot but just send the captcha to a service like that, and that's not even one of the cheapest ones. Especially when you consider what the real value of the data (or even spamming) is.
