The funny thing is that the smart captchas are easier for a computer to guess (if it wasn't a joke).

Too bad that the current implementation of captchas ever saw the light, they are pushing a security issue to the end user. Seems like a good opportunity :).

The acronym is "Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart" but it isn't really that automated, so do captchas actually exist?
