- Wowfunhappy 8y agoWell, it punishes bots in an equal amount, in that the bots have to wait longer before they can retry.
- darkpuma 8y agoIt punishes humans more than computers because computers are more efficient multitaskers. A computer can find a productive way to use the second between each tile fade in, but a human has no realistic way to productively use that second. The human sits there staring at the screen waiting, while the captcha-solving computer does other things (perhaps solve other captchas given to it through other connections.)
