How do I bypass Captchas
-
I feel like this might be something that people here come across a lot because VPNs seem to trigger Captchas a lot. What can I do to bypass them on desktop and android?
Easy: Stop using sites that require captchas
(Otherwise you just have to accept it

Look less suspicious. Be fingerprintable easily. Look unique but in a normal way. Be logged in. Look like a "normal" web user not using a hardened browser. That's what tends to trigger them and what tends to escalate them to demanding more work to get past them.
There's no turn-key solution that fakes all of this flawlessly I'm afraid.

Do you guys intentionally half-ass your capchtas or am I the only one?
eg. when Google asks me to recognize traffic lights, I intentionally make some errors to decrease the quality of data they harvest
The noise you add won't even register. No two people are going to half-ass it the same way, so if you average everyone's responses, the correct answer comes out.

I know
that's why I was asking if anybody else did it instead of campaigning for more people to do it -
You can try Buster, but I've never been able to get it working: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/buster-captcha-solver/
There are also various captcha solving services out there, however they all reek of shady "we steal your data" type services.
Buster works fine for me, but it don't really solve the image Captcha, but the auditive one, it's a modified speech recognition. But I think that currently Captchas absolutely obsolete, they can't avoid bots anymore since long time ago, because with the existing AI out there, a bot can resolve these better than a human. To avoid spam bots there are way better methodes (eg.Honeypots). Captchas are currently only data collection apps.

Captchas are there to track you. Websites can detect who is looking at this page just by mouse movement and your captcha is even better in recognizing you specifically.
So because they dont know who you are over a VPN, then they will figure it out. Tracking is what they love and sell

I started doing the audio instead, the little headphones icon. Way easier

Not only they're obsolete, they hinder humans and don't stop bots.

The easiest way to stop spam bots (and also spammers), I saw in the past in an Forum, where simply on creating an account, the activation mail was delayed for an hour. So a bot or an spammer, which always work with an disposable mail, which last normally less than half an hour, never recieve it. A normal user for sure can wait for it. The Forum never had problems with spam with this time filter.
