"receive hundreds of spam submission per day"
But this is exactly the point I am trying to make. That's the service provider's problem and not the user's. CAPTCHA shifts the problem to the user.
CAPTCHA is a 00's idea, when we had the multiple page registrations(with errors showing only after you submit the page), the insane password requirements, etc.. It doesn't belong to modern stack in my opinion.

I get your point about shifting the problem, but that's kind of the only option for the vast majority of website operators (particularly small ones). I have zero love for CAPTCHA myself, I have put time and effort in to other, server-side solutions but none perform even remotely as well.

- SquareWheel 7y agoAlmost. It gives a botness score to the server, and it's up to the website to decide what to do with that score. They can pick a threshold to approve, reject, or apply stricter verification to.
