Google doesn't even show a catpcha if they have enough tracking info for toy to verify you're a human, which is pretty simple for them if you don't clear all your cookies for a few days. I'm pretty sure Google thinks if they have to show you a catpcha they've failed, but along with that they don't feel the need to make the catpchas particularly easy if they do have to show it.

Except when it doesn't. Every so often it suddenly spams one with sheer number of captcha on sites that use the Google's Recaptcha API. Then you have to solve detect the houses, cars, store-fronts, deceiver plates and street signs several times successfully to move on or be prepared to solve several more captches to be allowed to move on. I would wish Google fix Recaptcha. It used to be so good.

So is this the end of Google captchas asking for where the car/sign/whatever is? Will there be a final battle of AIs, where they will kill each other, and the unfettered access to websites over VPN/tor wins and laughs the last laugh?

For the car captchas, I've found actually clicking all the boxes with part of a car will always be a wrong answer (distinct from when it just makes you answer twice). Instead, you have to click on the squares that you know it thinks are cars. This creates a twisted Turing test situation where, to prove you are a human, you have to pretend to be a machine's idea of what a human is.

I'm not expert on this but what I'm seeing is that port 443 is serving up a response when jaruzel.com is requested on that port. While you may not be actively advertising that domain with https URLs, it is valid for clients to request one speculatively. There isn't a valid cert for that domain and for some reason for server is offering a different one. Presumably you need to unbind 443 from that host header name (thi…

Complaining about a non-existent SSL cert and then backseat driving the "fix", using words like "you need to", all based on shady memories of configuring IIS a decade ago? Really?
