  • what about the support for other languages beyond english?

  • You can see the supported languages in the API client documentation on the reCAPTCHA site, or use custom theming to put it in any other language.

  • You'd be suprised what computers can do. It won't be long before those can be bypassed. Youtube's captcha is just broken though. Even most humans have trouble figuring them out.

  • THIS IS AWESOME!

  • I hate the Captcha's they give you in recaptcha, The squiggly lines you showed on those words aren't what I see in mine, they literally just make the words almost unreadable as in the words with the captcha look like paint dripping, heck I personally like youtube's own better :/

  • Take the thing off of my computer because every time I try to add somebody on face book that comes up, so please can you take it off for me :) !!

  • Incredible! reCAPTCHA helps a lot to avoid bots and spammer. I also helps prevent internet traffic by reducing multiple ad postings by bots.

  • Worst invention ever, its broke as crap on youtube, had to enter a recapcha about 4 times in a row, I'm expecting another one now.

    Also, sometimes I enter the right captcha and it it doesn't accept...

  • Stop Spam. Read Books! :)
