Are CAPTCHAs still effective?
But while attack technology has evolved, CAPTCHAs have not kept up with the times. Even though they have been improved to be less invasive (and don't require identifying traffic lights or crosswalks all of the time), they still introduce friction and are easy to bypass.
Is CAPTCHA effective against bots?
A CAPTCHA can protect your website by generating tests or puzzles that human can pass, but bots cannot.
What is the disadvantage of CAPTCHA?
Although CAPTCHA is pretty effective currently, that effectiveness comes with a significant disadvantage and that's stopping users who use a screen reader or other assistive technology from using your website. It's a poor user experience and the user shouldn't be burdened with having to prove they're human.
How accurate is CAPTCHA?
Google's reCAPTCHA is used in 97% of the top one million websites and claims to be 99.8% accurate.
