Have you encountered the CAPTCHA from this monstrosity of a company called Arkose Labs? I don't get angry but I was trying to redeem gift cards for an elderly relative and I was shouting and gave up.

Not sure if I am allowed to paste links but search for "arkose labs reddit" or just the name of this company on Twitter. Or search "arkose labs san francisco" on Google and just read the reviews.

^This.

That CAPTCHA on Epic Games Store is hell. Worst part being you have to do it all over again if you fail even once and that one is enough for me to not login.

Easily the worst captcha there is, it makes you do the captcha 10 times (it says 10 to go after you do the first one) and if you get one wrong it doesn't tell you until the end after you've done them all, in which case you have to repeat it.

Seems like they are afraid of robots.
