This community collects situations where people are forced to solve a CAPTCHA as a precondition to public service either from a gov agency or to complete some essential task like interacting with a monopolising utility company (where you have no choice of suppliers).

We are interested in the most oppressive forms of CAPTCHA, such as:

graphical CAPTCHA
CAPTCHAs that exclude some demographics of people, such as:
- people with disabilities
- Tor users
- people not executing non-free JavaScript
- people who boycott the CAPTCHA maker (e.g. Google)
- CAPTCHAs that are difficult to solve
CAPTCHAs that are broken

Rules / suggestions

Please mention the geographic location in the 1st word of your title
Please mention whether or not there are workarounds in the body. Such as whether or not there is an analog way to perform the transaction.
For discussion on #CAPTCHA in general, consider posting to a related community (see below).

!passwords@infosec.pub: not just passwords but covers CAPTCHA discussion in general. This venue is better for posts about CAPTCHA that do not call out a specific scenario in the charter above.
