It's not even bots that are breaking them much of the time. The spammers just get people in third world countries/using mechanical turk type services to break them. Captchas like this cannot stop a human determined to break the rules.

Right, but eliminating all attackers except the ones who are willing to spend money on human labor is an incredibly strong filter.
