Archive.Today starting to use Google's QR-based reCaptcha

#recaptcha #degoogle #datahoarder

The site has a few variant domains, unsure why, and archive.md, the one I'd been using, threw the QR reCaptcha just now, as per the attached image, while archive.today directly threw the good ol' "try to verify a dozen times" version.

The recaptcha may appear even when the user is not using a VPN if it grows suspicious, meaning the site may soon be inaccessible without bending to Google.

Heute ist mir tatsächlich das erste Mal ein #reCaptcha mit QR-Code begegnet.

Das sieht wirklich unfassbar dämlich aus mit einem großen QR-Code und der Aufforderung, das jetzt mit dem Handy zu scannen.

Immerhin konnte ich noch umschalten und wie gewohnt raten, welches Kästchen nun Ampel ist und welches nicht.

Scannen Sie den QR-Code, um zu bestätigen, dass Sie ein Mensch sind

Nö!

Noch funktioniert das visuelle Captcha. Also Autos, Brücken, Berge, Fahrräder und Zebrastreifen suchen... In der Tiefetage einfach das Auge anklicken.

Motherfuckers. I'm so tired

One of the reasons why @mediascopegroup, when building websites for clients and hosting them, does not use/recommend Google reCaptcha system is that it gives too much power to a single company. This is bad for user experience and business.

Positioning Google or other company as digital gatekeeper creates more risks and - in long-term - is harmful for everyone: people, companies, organizations.

To those who make websites for themselves or others, strongly consider ditching Google reCaptcha system and choose better solutions.

'Google Broke reCAPTCHA for De-Googled Android Users'

https://reclaimthenet.org/google-broke-recaptcha-for-de-googled-android-users

Google has tied its next-generation reCAPTCHA system to Google Play Services on Android, meaning anyone running a de-Googled phone will automatically fail verification when the system decides to challenge them.

The requirement forces Android users to run Google’s proprietary app framework version 25.41.30 or higher just to prove they’re human.

So Google is seemingly updating reCAPTCHA (the most popular bot detection method on the web since forever) to require a phone running either iOS or a Google-sanctioned Android OS.

If you don't have a smartphone or your smartphone has stuff like GrapheneOS on it, you can't seemingly complete reCAPTCHAS anymore without jumping through hoops or by getting a separate phone for doing this.

Felicitaciones a #hCaptcha, que tiene una cookie de #accesibilidad para que las personas con ciertas #discapacidades puedan saltearse completamente las pruebas y evitarlas. Algo que el resto de servicios de #CAPTCHAs debería aprender e imitar…
