Here's a crazy conspiracy theory for fun: Google et al are well aware that CAPTCHAs don't achieve anything. So they build all these CAPTCHA "breaking" sites that actually just return the correct result from their internal databases after a random delay, thereby earning themselves a pretty penny from spammers that were going to abuse their systems anyway.
