Are you sure this should be called CAPTCHA? #97

CAPTCHAs should be able to tell humans and robots apart, not to rate limit them. I can write a demo using selenium which could've easily clicked that "I'm not a robot" button and passed the test

Thanks for opening this issue, we are investigating alternate names. Should have something by the end of the year :)

edit: the demo exists :wink:

I think mCaptcha is a good name, obviously "Captcha" has a literal meaning but most people still call POW Captchas "Captchas". For example friendlycaptcha.

Also for SEO purposes more people will be searching Captcha etc
