Turns out reCAPTCHAs aren’t actually ‘tracking the way you move your mouse’ but just trying to match you to one of the billions of statistical models held in Google datacenters that represent the device fingerprints, personalities, locations, and preferences of every Internet user they track.

And when they fail to match you… then they presume you’re not a real person.

Telegrams billionaire founder claims that he is bankrolling the thing with his personal wealth. I’m pretty sure he also claimed at one point that the average user cost them $6 per year, or something along those lines.

They decreased it?? People always complain about max file sizes being too small.

The opposite is true as well! Some people literally can’t read white text on a black background.

Including both light and dark mode is a matter of accessibility!
