Which makes sense, seeing as they use account data and other heuristics to determine if you're a bot or not. The streetsigns are their fallback for when they don't have enough data.
- darkpuma 8y agoNo, it's not that simple. When recaptcha particularly wants to punish a user they start fading in tiles which doesn't make the captcha any harder for ML to solve, it only frustrates real humans. Furthermore, when the security level of the captcha is configured by the web admin to the lowest level, users are able to use a noscript version of the captcha. When you do this, it becomes clear that the javascript version is deliberately rejecting correct answers to make you solve more and more challenges just because they're in the mood to fuck with you. This becomes clear because the noscript captcha from the same IP and same browser will accept the correct answer the first time, every time.
