🏡 It’s About Time To Ditch Captcha In 2024

77 600 houses could be built each year if we wouldn’t have to solve captcha. But year after year, captchas are still wasting our time and money. 2024 is a great year to ditch captcha alltogether.

Captcha And Printers Are The Same

The other day I had to do some things online that I postponed for a while. One of these was to unsubscribe from a newsletter I didn’t need anymore.

It was my last task for that day and I was left with 5 minutes to finish it. I’ve headed to the website of the company with the link provided in the email.

To unsubscribe I had to log in to the account and click one checkbox to disable the email subscription. A perfect task to be done in 5 minutes.

I was able to write this article, because people read it on Medium

On the login page I was welcomed by a captcha to verify I’m a human person. Because I was in hurry I’ve clicked all the photos showing sidewalks.

Unfortunately I missed one. So I’ve started to click the photos fast to finish that very last task before I had to go to an appointed dentist visit.
