Why does every individual site need to work out whether I'm a bot or not?

Surely there must be a better way than having to wait 10 seconds for EVERY SINGLE SITE ON THE INTERNET to verify that I'm a human?

Just as we once taught ourselves to use passwords we would never remember, but a computer could guess in seconds, we now seem to be at a point where humans are being frustrated by every site wanting to make sure we're real.... but computers just work around it (or move to the next site)....

@Quentin
As you said, computers just work around these blockades. Passing the #Cloudflare gate does not prove a man's hand clicked on the box.

A machine can get around Cloudflare's blockade and write a post, all automated by a script.

@Earl I think it's exacerbated because I've been using Brave browser. I just thought I'd try something a bit more secure and ad blocking than Chrome...
