    reCaptcha isnt working ?

    Anyone else has this problem ? In the past ~8 hours or so, reCaptcha isnt working anymore.

    Its entrance to many important sites (Turbobit, KatFile, RapidGator etc) and really annoying.

    Its even more annoying because its a google service. Shouldnt they have enough money to keep their webservices running ?

    Captcha just needs to be abolished. Not only are they a fucking annoying shitty user experience, and responsible for a whole new underground sweatshop-style industry with people being paid pennies a day to solve thousands of them, but advances in AI mean that bots are now better and significantly faster than humans at solving them, accomplishing the exact opposite of their intended purpose by keeping humans out while letting bots in.

    Their solution? Make the captchas harder, of course

    I agree they are sodding well annoying - the other day it took me 5 attempts to correctly choose how many squares contained bits of a blurry motorcycle. These things are designed to make you feel like an idiot.

    Reminds me of the time I was presented with a Captcha with a mountain picture asking me to click on the squares with a crosswalk in them... and there was no Skip button...
