That's puzzling.
Were they accessing a secure government site that was serving CAPTCHAs?
Or were they accessing a public site from a government facility with browsers that were so locked down that they triggered CAPTCHAs?
The first would be kinda stupid. The second would be funny. Or tragic, I suppose.
- dual_basis 8y agoSpeaking as someone with some military experience, almost certainly the second. Military computers are locked down excessively, often in ways that are actually counter to real security. Policy is reactionary, and is all-too-often simultaneously too narrow and too broad (in orthogonal ways) which ends up impacting usability while not really adding any security.
