> isn't there some endgame to this?
When the computer solvers (the 'bots') become better than humans. Then only the bots will be able to get past them.
If a site uses a capcha I never use that site again.
Why would I visit a site that uses preventative measures to stop me from visiting that website.
Its a no brainer for me.
Why should I let the likes of google, and others, scan my browsing history to confirm I am human by checking if I have cookies from other sites. "No way Jose!".
For me its just another way to circumvent our privacy for our own protection.
They keep getting more difficult because computers keep becoming able to solve them.
