"hCaptcha now ruins fifteen percent of the internet"

I loathe captchas, especially Googles who seems to punish my use of privacy extensions (ie ublock origin, Ghostery Lite).

Captcha is a ok tool when you have valid reasons to assume the user is a bot (multiple failed logins, unusual traffic, password resets etc.). Used as a default it only antagonizes users.
