Google captcha is particularly egregious because it will flag you as "never allow in, ever" but not give any indication of this, and still will happily have you solving captchas (that is, working for Google, for free) for 30+ minutes, until you catch on that they aren't ever going to let you past.
Captcha v3 is even worse in this regard, because it silently flags you while appearing to let you in...
- VectorLock 7y agoI like this idea since it puts a lot of effort onto bad actors and exhausts their resources.
- throwaway2048 7y agoCool, lets hope it doesn't consistently consider you a "bad actor" for reasons that it wont ever tell you.
- VectorLock 7y agoI never said the system was flawless, simply that the idea of continuing to present checks instead of explicitly saying "you're blocked" was a clever idea.
