If you’re not new to the internet and you’ve filled in online forms from time to time, you’ll probably know what I’m talking about. For a couple of years now a lot of forms have some sort of “Are you human?” confirmation, generally it shows you a picture of a word, or a random combination of letters and numbers. Clearly hackers have been able to design bots to figure them out, so now they’re more and more complicated. I can’t even read them sometimes, and here’s the latest attempt to ward off bots:
It took me a while to figure out what they wanted me to enter… It looked to me like all the letters/numbers had a cat next to them, but it only wants four. First I thought it was a trick question because they asked for “letters”, and there were only four letters in the picture, but that didn’t work. Then I tried a bunch of stuff, in the end “NU7K” worked… I guess those have ‘clearer’ pictures of cats?
Ridiculous.
wow, I have no idea whats going on in that picture, it looks like they all have cats, wtf!
