Captchas are a way to force the malicious subscriber to spend human or computer time breaking it (if captchas can be broken). As a consequence, it might make sense to just accept it is the case and require a javascript-generated proof of work before accepting the subscription. This way the amount of computer time required can be more easily modulated, and the human is not faced with a hard-to-answer captcha -- I don't know how you feel, but as a user I'd much rather have my computer spin for a few tens of seconds before sending the form (especially as it can happen at the same time as I fill it) than have to fill in a captcha. _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://chilli.nosignal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mailop
