I seem to have fallen into the enhanced CAPTCHA bucket that asks me to click on sooo many images of bicycles and motorcycles and traffic lights, probably because I misclicked a couple of things before (trackpoint! buttons!). I'm getting grumpier and grumpier about it. It was somewhat tolerable in the early days of asking humans for help with image classification or text recognition, but with all the corporate froth around self-driving cars or generative AI images... Meh.
@sachac I'm only one more data point but I've had a couple similar experiences. Had to solve seven puzzles in a row to get into the Playstation Store a few days ago. No recent CAPTCHA mistakes to trigger it, either.
@sachac My sympathies. And to think that so much energy and computing power goes into this cat and mouse chase! (Same thing for the battle in spamdom...). Hoping for better days...
PS: Let me seize this opportunity to thank you for the invaluable work in the emacs community! Many thanks!
