    Question: I don’t have a camera, how am I supposed to complete this captcha without cheating?

    I don’t see how any captcha will remain viable for long at this point. The bots are going to win eventually.

        All good points. I was just thinking I probably would not be willing to do any camera-based captcha.

        At a certain point if they force me to stop being online maybe that’s not so bad.

      the bots won looooooong ago, they’ve been faster and more accurate at the captchas for quite a while. there’s even browser plugins that automatically solve the audio captcha.

      this is just biometric data collection, because they know that many people will use it if it’s presented to them, especially if it’s less tedious that clicking 15 slowly disappearing traffic lights. the average joe isn’t doing a bypass with a virtual camera.

    Demographic data gathering, or training visual models for infantry drones to follow hand signals? ¿Porque no los dos?

    Maybe I can convince it the camera watching my 3d printer is a Webcam and very slowly print a middle finger?

    I wouldn’t have turned my camera on for this anyway but as a person without hands this can fuck right off.
