I recently replaced a bunch of securimage captchas with reCAPTCHA v2. During testing I had to shut it off because it became increasingly more complicated every page reload. First it was just one page of traffic lights, but 20 minutes later I was having to click through 5-6 pages of images. This worries me that user's might get pissed off. I'd really like to know if I've made life harder for my users in an attempt to stop the spam from the horribly broken securimage captcha.

I cancelled and deleted my Spotify account because of that. Now any site that asks me to fill a Google recaptcha is met with a swift click on the Back button.

Well. You showed them, then. I'm sure someone will notice.

Really? You gave up one of the best streaming music services because you had to use a captcha every now and then? Huh. Good data point. But you're probably not our target audience if you give up that easy, we sell engineering tools for solving difficult problems.

Why are you now badmouthing someone else for deleting Spotify over this exact same issue?
