The problem of making CAPTCHAs accessible while keeping them effective at curbing abuse is truly a hard one. Audio CAPTCHAs help, but as HN user miki123211 pointed out [1], they're only useful to blind people who aren't also hard of hearing and can understand the spoken language being used (usually English). And I assume that for the sites that use CAPTCHAs, just dropping them isn't an option. So, since there's no solution, I'm glad there are services like Be My Eyes to help.
