Ok, so I've decided to expand on the #CAPTCHA joke a bit.

🤡 Ah, the #nostalgia of reliving the 90s with Cloudflare's demand for a "better" user-agent, because who doesn’t love a modern web obstacle course? Congrats on turning #WebGL into a fingerprinting playground—next up, #CAPTCHA that asks for your favorite smells! 🕵️‍♂️🔍

Cloudflare Turnstile requiring fingerprintable WebGL

So for 20yrs #Google has been using #CAPTCHA our unpaid labor to train its learning models on scanned text, pics, its scanned books, articles & StreetView images (it couldn’t figure out) to train Waymo, #autonomous driving etc.

Same as #Pokémon Go scam.

why the heck does #Signal suddenly prompt me to solve a #captcha to allow me to keep messaging‽ and it keeps requiring that like every minute, even without me sending or receiving anything …

so ig to anyone wanting to message me on Signal, I’m currently unreachable there :/

🚨 ALERT: Groundbreaking news! CAPTCHAs can *still* outsmart AI! 😱💡 Apparently, #AI can now beat humans at everything except spotting #crosswalks in blurry photos. 🤖➡️🧠 Forget 1000 words, here's the real scoop: CAPTCHAs - humanity's last stand in the war against #bots... or not. 🦾🚫

CAPTCHAs can still detect AI agents | Roundtable Research

AI systems now match human solutions on many tasks, but reach those solutions via measurably different processes. This gap can be exploited to detect AI agents and online bots.

Unusual activity means the site (in this case eTsy can not grab data from my system to resell for marketing/advertising/data-mining/id-theft and all those nice things they are "usually" engaging in to provide access to "sellers' data" ...

Sellers should know their fees for listing include rights of reselling/exchanging data between seller/buyer into third parties.

AND THIS IS AFTER allowing scripts for eTsy.com and captcha-delivery.com the only two sites listed as attempting to run scripts ...!!!!!!!!!!!!

"The CAPTCHA protocol

Difficult choices.

Olympus Mons Data Recovery Centre, 2830
Kael-7 felt the phantom itch in his neural interface — a topological dissonance. As lead logic archaeologist, he was accustomed to the fluid elegance of 137-base ternary systems, where data flowed like continuous, braided music. But the artefact pulsating on his retina was different. It was a clot of binary jaggedness, a relic that refused to integrate with the smooth curves of Martian reality.

In today's "life without JavaScript and cookies is impossible" saga, we explore the imaginary world where AI can barely handle a #CAPTCHA, yet we're dreaming of AI lawyers. 🤖📚 Perhaps the real structural barrier is that AI can't read this article without tech support! 🚫🍪
