Anybody else sick of captcha. Any way to turn it off?
Every answer demands a captcha. If anyone wonders where I got to (or cares), I will be avoiding YA until this practice disappears. I'm not here to assist any organization with their spyware.
OK, I tried something that seems to work. If you just choose random images that have nothing to do with what is supposed to be clicked, captcha seems to give up for awhile. This suits me fine, as I think we should all work together to frustrate this thing, which is ultimately going to be used for spyware and other invasive purposes.

No. there is no way to turn it off. It's a a security measure so we don't have months of Asian language questions like we did a year ago.

No. Captcha is a security measure that thwarts spamming. This can never be turned off at all.

captcha is that irritating test that you must do to choose pictures from a set with buildings or whatever in them.

No but you can avoid the captchas by answering the questions via the question list.
