Title: Captcha
Post by: Lomaz on October 15, 2011, 03:02:18 am
it seems a bit silly to build a program that automatically finds codes to block automatic codes from doing things without human help, so i present to you, a couple i've found that a bot wouldn't have a super large amount of difficulty getting around, but a real person wouldn't have a hope in hell of getting!

the first and second require help from a char map, while the third... just looks like black poo.

Bah, that's the CAPTCHA service CC uses. That being said, only the first word is actually tested. The second is a random word from a book they're trying to digitize. It's a method of getting millions of people to do it, one word at a time.

It's actually a pretty cool project, but sometimes it ends up pulling in crap like that.

Here's an explanation of the project.

It would be so much more fun if they just used riddles instead of random letters  :-*
