When the internet warns you to not waste time!

CAPTCHA advice

Some sites I use require me to solve a CAPTCHA to access some features - a way of differentiating between bots and humans. Some of these require me to read a phrase and type the same onto a text box. I often wonder how 'random' these phrases are. Sometimes, they seem directed specifically at me with messages that are very personal. Look at this message - "Don't waste time". I was surfing quite randomly when this CAPTCHA came up, but it seems like the advice was spot on!!

The worse is when they ask who your favorite super hero is. Supposedly that is our new AI, no one reads it but AI is allowed to reject you if give silly answers. Why saying why you wasting my time gets you rejected every time?

It’s funny how these little things seem to coincide with our general activities, sometimes.

I wonder if it's mere coincidence.

@pitstop These days, most people would probably tell you that it is not.
