As a bot myself, this comment is very offensive and prejudiced. Reported

If you tick the box with a wacom or something like that that has absolute positional input, or if you use caret browsing, it'll often fail you and require you to solve a shed load of picture captchas.

Just doing it quickly achieves that. You have to move your mouse at granny pace to make sure it doesn't bring up the dreaded pics.

Me too. I tried acting as wierd as possible to see if it will think im a bot.

@@Blox117 this was Just fun you bot 🤦

Exactly! How much does it count?

That's the real question. Been caught out by it so many times it's not funny.

Nugcon but does the pole the sign is on count also????

What counts as part of the sign (or traffic light) is quite ambiguous really, even in our daily lives. Humans are just not that certain.

Flip a coin. Heads, then yes. Tails, then delet your cursor away from it.

Unless you're using Chrome so we can snoop on everything you do, then we'll just let you check a box and go on your way. BUT if you're using some other browser, we'll make you go round and round until you give up and install Chrome. No, I'm not exaggeratting...

@@Reziac ... And BOY. Don't get me started on TOR...

What? I use Chrome and get these things constantly, especially in incognito.

@@Reziac Google actually owns a patent for a method of locking out bots through the use of unsolvable Captcha tests. If you find that you're being sent through a loop it's probably classified you as a bot. Try hard-refreshing the page (usually ctrl+F5) and trying again, usually works for me.

I never do in Chrome/Chromium. I don't know if it has anything to do with being associated with a GMail/YT account. Doesn't seem to in other browsers.

They actually could do that as long as they use software (i.e. [faciaIrecognition]) and the data is not stored on Google's servers or accessed by any actual people. If it's part of the 'machine learning CAPTCHA data system' they could probably defend it as legitimate.

I think that in Finland that is not the case. You cannot be made to do anything that would incriminate yourself, nor do you have to help the police in solving a crime you may or may not have done.

don't forget, brit police do not work to english law, but to the laws passed down for THEM to use... ever tried to arrest a cop breaking the law - breach of the peace? they hate independent action/initiative SO much they even have another name for citizens arrest - 'arrest by OTHER persons'!

@@masonhunter2748 "We’re not playing Yellow Car!" "You’re always playing Yellow Car."

That's frustrating. Maybe they do it if they're extra suspicious of you. Slow enough to be bearable for humans, but would slow down bots significanly.

Except it _isn't_ bearable for humans. It's absolutely terrible.

that sounds like something a robot would say

I’ve had those captchas so many times before and it never stops being frustrating. I used to have to regularly access a site with one on a device with limited controls and it made it ten times more annoying when you are slowly moving the cursor from image to image and having to wait for each one to disappear. And then you complete it and it gives you another one. I’ve had 10+ in a row before...

aLso when you fail and somehow you have to do like 5 in a row.

Right! I got one where I had to tell what the dress length was. Google, I'm not an expert.

apparently roblox's captcha used to be super hard, like 50 youtubers got locked out of their accounts bc they couldnt pass the captcha

When I log into google sometimes, there's a distorted text CAPTCHA and I cannot pass it no matter what I do. I'm just typing the letters that I see 😭

Conspiracy time: Google can choose websites where this secondary check appears more often to reduce (and i mean up to 10 image checks)

I'm assuming they would feed the same word to dozens, maybe even hundreds of users to make sure they could get a consensus. Not even to deal with trolls, just to make sure there weren't any mistakes.

I don't know if Captchas display in languages other than English or if they always display in English, but I have already gotten a few wrong despite being a native English speaker because they have asked for things that are common to Americans but not common to Brits. For example I got one asking me to identify 'crosswalks', I deducted that a crosswalk must be a 'zebra crossing' (white and black stripes on the road), I clicked all the ones I saw but somehow still failed. Also the one Tom mentioned in the video about fire hydrants, you would need to have a rudimentary knowledge of the US to get that one since fire hydrants in Europe are hidden from view - they are all beneath the pavement (sidewalk) with just a small 'H' printed nearby on a wall or short sign that only firefighters are trained to look out for. If a kid got that Captcha they would be clueless as to what a hydrant was.

Now, and in the past, and in the future. That's what time-travellers do... ;-)
