    I fucking hate that scenario. Click on buses: ok, that the corner by a few pixels. Does it expect that or will it make me do another captcha?

      It expects you to behave like the other humans in its training sample. Just act like a neurotypical and you’ll pass the captcha. And if you can’t act like a neurotypical, then you’re fucked.

      Most of the time they already know whether you’re human or robot from your user agent string and the speed of your request. I encountered multiple layer of Captchas if I turned in my VPN and blocked all trackers.

        I’ve found that using a VPN tends to get e caught in more Captcha loops than not. I think google, etc. has gotten better at knowing which swathes of IP addresses belong to VPNs. I thought that maybe it was specifically an issue with NordVPN because it had gotten so popular, so I switched to Mullvad and nope. Still get way more captchas. Still keep it on.

        Then why does it fail me every other time if it knows I’m human and I don’t use a VPN? Very annoying!
