Today I went to a website, and it forces every visitor to do CAPTCHA to get access to the website content. It takes me 5 times doing CAPTCHA just to get access to the website. The same happened in the morning.

Am I stupid?

Nope, just a robot

Sounds like that website has a shitty user experience and needs to hear some feedback to that effect.

If you gatekeep your content or hinder access to your content you need to know that's a horrible way to do business.

Captcha was, and is, used for two things: identifying humans and slowing humans down.

Tor browser?

Probably behind Cloudflare.

@sariel Three: punishing humans who look or behave differently.

@Root 😂 I did forget that one didn't I

@wackOverflow If it was, it'd rather take 30s to 2m. (not blaming the Onion network here, but shitty captchas)

I think that captcha has level of correctness. There are websites where I have to try 3-4 times. And there are websites where I just choose the minimum tiles and it’s correct 100% of times.

Invisible captcha. That's all.

@Linux Not really. The morning one is Cloudflare but the one that I am ranting here looks pretty homemade. Btw the website is Displate.

@wackOverflow No. Vivaldi. I use it to go to the website I am ranting here.
