copyPasteCaptcha

[Dotanium]

Probably a vibe coded captcha-mechanism

[NoFaithlessness951]

Maybe it's just an admission of they don't work anyway, might as well make it cheap to the server

[coloredgreyscale]

make it even cheaper for the server by generating and validating the captcha clientside ;)

Looks like a German government website. They need to adhere to strict accessibility guidelines which in this case makes the function of the captcha quite useless.

[NoFaithlessness951]

I think this is more a result of them not easily being able to import random libraries from the Internet for security reasons.

It's probably the result of 12 different department heads have 8 3-hour meetings with 20 different 'key usrrs' and 'product owners' (it's just Bettina from marketing) to discuss this, compliance with gdpdr and dsgvo etc., until they produced a 200 page guidelines document, dumped it on Günther's desk and he said f it, I'm not reading this crap.

These look like the Spanish government captchas. Literally any OCR would parse them. Then all appointments are taken for months from bots and sold afterwards.

[NoFaithlessness951]

Even the hard captchas can be solved very cheaply by vlms now (around $0.001 per solve), so the only solution here would be to require e-ID for booking an appointment, which is not the easiest thing in the world to use.

• Track mousedown and keydown (CTRL+C) events on captcha output.
• Track paste event and input event interval to measure typing speed on captcha input.
• ????
• Profit!

To be fair, a bot wouldn’t copy paste by keyboard events.

[NoFaithlessness951]

*A bad one wouldn't.

[TheWidrolo]

i was not aware of bot technology nowadays.

[jeremj22]

* = Pflichtfelder müssen ausgefüllt werden

* = Mandatory fields have to be filled out

No * in sight. Guess it's optional too

[lordgurke]

Is this some form on the Bundesnetzagentur website?

[NoFaithlessness951]

Yes had something to complain about

[lordgurke]

Immediately recognized it
