    I don’t think the point is to leave the bots out. It looks more like grabbing even more info about you, because you can know a lot about the person just telling them to wave their hand on a cam:

    • sex, gender, skin colour, age
    • do they have calluses? This hints profession
    • do they bite the nails, leave them to grow too much, or carefully trim them? This hints psychological factors
    • what’s on the background? Even a blank background hints the person is a bit more privacy-conscious.
    • etc.

      All good points. I was just thinking I probably would not be willing to do any camera-based captcha.

      At a certain point if they force me to stop being online maybe that’s not so bad.
