You've now forced spammers to purchase webcams. And write code or whatever to make realistic mouse movements. This is expensive. Whatever they're doing likely isn't worth it anymore.
- cr0sh 8y agofake-users-as-a-service business op? I can see it being possible - racks of "robot arms" that move mice based on whatever criteria is needed (in this case, reCaptcha). It works for 3D printing, as well as device testing - so in theory, this could be done too...
- noir_lord 8y agoHave the ‘AI’ solved the I’m not a robot and kick the street view stuff to a human. It’s always going to be an arms race I guess.

- brokenmachine 8y agoI don't get why you'd need a physical robot arm? Just have a usb device that simulates the mouse movements. Or just software to move the mouse virtually.
- noir_lord 8y agoYou don’t, you wouldn’t even need a webcam, you could just splice into the video signal at output and interpret it directly (much as the HDCP bypasses do).
