Omg. I am on various VPN’s and now and again Google Auth (for youtube) throws me a captcha. They are mostly unreadable, but there is an audio option… which is just insane and does not make any sense, anyone had that? It sounds like a recording of 300 people speaking at the same time in a call center while on various dosages of LSD

I've actually been in a call center with 300 intoxicated folk all talking at once. Its easier to understand than the recaptcha audio.

(Only a couple folks on hallucinogenics, most on various downers.)

I've got captchas that made me play a small game and I score like 3 points to go ahead, lol. For real.
They give you that (or hieroglyphics) if you are using certain VPNs and don't leave a specific browser fingerprint.
There is a point where not leaving fingerprints becomes a fingerprint in itself.
