How does the “I Am Not A Robot” protect the internet?

1.03K viewsOtherTechnology

The “I Am Not A Robot” box is always at the end of internet forms looking exactly alike from the last time I had checked the box. The exact repetitive graphic nature of the question seems so easy to defeat by even primitive AI.

This is a secret Google system that tracks many factors to decide whether you’re a human or a computer. Some important factors seem to be your IP address, your browser, and how quickly you click the mouse. If it’s sure you’re a human, it just lets you through and clicking the box is a formality. If it isn’t sure, you’ll get a traditional test where you have to click on pictures. It’s also possible that it’s sure you’re a bot, which I’ve experienced at least once, and it won’t let you pass at all.
