I’m getting really tired of “verify you’re not a bot” checks everywhere.

I understand these checks help prevent bots, but they seem to appear on so many websites now. Does anyone else find them frustrating?

    yes, including useless captchas… even more so as i know they’re trivially bypassed/workarounded on sophisticated bots

    i understand it does block stupid crawlers but still.
