Recaptcha is one of the worst providers of such services. At times, I need to complete like 10 for being one square off or whatever, while I need a single attempt for e.g. Arkose Labs stuff.
Sometimes, like in the picture (whether it’s real or not), the captcha is simply wrong and you can’t do it right but by accident. I already did not visit websites because I didn’t feel like giving it another try.
are you using a datacentre IP?
I’ve found that when i have my VPN connected it will get me to do like dozens of them. if my VPN isn’t connected it is usually just 1 or 2.
Also when it’s in the cycle of prompting you for dozens of them, skip any like the one in the image above until you get one of the ones that has you select from multiple matching pictures. these seem to be the only ones that matter when it’s in that state.
Try the audio captcha option, those usually have an actual answer it will accept. Which ironically speech to text is more or less reliably able to solve, and there are extensions to solve captchas automatically for you that way
There’s unfortunately a chance audio option just locks you out because fuck you :(
Why not link to the original?
So it could bitch and moan about being over capacity and/or refuse to load the image for no discernable reason after I’m forcibly redirected to a useless web page after it detects I’m on a web browser.
Couldn’t find it
Am I the only one who has to do like 12 of these in a row before my humanity is recognized? Beyond mildly inconvenient, it’s downright annoying now.
Edit: I use Mullvad + Firefox + Betterfox + uBO. I don’t think my setup is that sophisticated lmao
If you use ad blockers and/or vpn they will just gaslight you forever.
No. The point of recapatcha is to punish people protecting themselves. The system absolutely lies to you that you got a challenge incorrect.
You aren’t the only one. I don’t bother solving them anymore because of this nonsense. I simply close the tab.
I just use an extension to solve it, that I was told about on here. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/buster-captcha-solver/ if it can’t solve it, just hit refresh, and try again.
Humans outsourcing human checks to bots because it’s too annoying to prove they are human. We’ve fallen so far.
After 2, I say “fuck it” and find a different option.
Works as long as it’s not your bank or something
find a different bank >:)
There are four lights!
There are NO lights!

Ceci n’est pas un signe
Baudrillard strikes again.
We all thought human creativity would separate us from the machines
It turns out, humans just aren’t very creative
CAPTCHAs should be renamed Human Gaslighters
There are three lights!
No, four!!!
Pretty sure that’s not how captures work. You don’t fail them, you add to the training set. You’re against the masses as to whether they considered it a traffic light when they were shown it.
Have you never actually failed one of those image captchas before? Really?
