While I like the idea of not having to deal with these annoying ReCAPTCHA prompts, something somehow feels "intrusive ?". I mean does this mean google is going to keep track of what I would be doing when I visit a site? Say for instance I am signing up for a website, does the password I enter get sent to google servers to be analyzed now?
Google using captchas to get humans to read street addresses captured by street view cars to improve maps results remains one of the most Googly things they've ever done. Genius, lateral, and a little weird.
This is so confusing. It doesn't explain how it works nor a demo page nor the reason behind why it went invisible.

That whole page wasn't apple to explain WHY it is invisible and how it works if it's invisible.
Guessing it's your browsing history (courtesy of including js from a Google domain) plus mouse tracking. It doesn't seem much different than the current "click here" one to me. They are just letting the page owner substitute their own button in lieu of the check box.
nice, but that was the most uninformative video ever.

How does Google determine if the captcha should be shown?
What are the "adaptive captchas" that are shown to suspect users? A demo would do a great job here.
How does an invisible captcha "create value by applying human bandwidth" if the premise is that humans never see the captcha?

Having to do free work for Google is more than weird for me. For this reason unless the page is really important I end up closing the tab. If it was for open service (such as OpenStreetMap) it would be a different matter though.

I'm wondering if this might not be illegal under several countries' data privacy laws. Users need to be directly and visibly be informed, if and when data of theirs will be transmitted to third parties. As Google's ReCaptcha is based on tracking what websites you visit, what search terms you enter, correlating this data, and comparing this tracking profile of yours, it's quite problematic that the user doesn't even s…
The most frequent encounters with CAPTCHA's I see are rejected API requests over VPN.
