What nobody tells you about using a VPN

I HATE this part of having a VPN. Captcha is supposed to check the mouse patterns to see if you're real, so I guess I'm as fake as can be. At least this funny video (born from rage) came out of it. I hope you enjoy it.

They don't actually know what a motorcycle is. If you don't also select anything with two wheels and people near them, it doesn't agree.

@@tangentfox4677 "and people near them" see I wasn't sure if I was supposed to include the rider or not XD

[@MrMegaMetroid]

it doesn't care about what a motorcycle is, captchas do 2 things: a, they monitor your mouse movement, browser history, reaction times etc to see if you look human (the browser/cookies/online behaviour is why you get so many by using vpns, it doesn't detect anything so it thinks you're a bot), and b: it trains an ai model by taking all the average answers people give. you dont have to hit the motorcycle perfectly, you just have to give a fairly average answer, and both taking or not taking passengers into account should happen roughly equally

[@SaHaRaSquad]

I just click everything that contains even a small corner of what's asked and it always works for me. I don't use VPNs though so who knows.

[@TechnicolorMammoth]

You do get it correct, they are manipulated so they frustrate people with vpns to push them to not use them.

[@dolst]

My favorite is when you click the picture in a multi-picture captcha and it takes 10 seconds to fade to white and then another 10 seconds to fade into the next picture. I imagine Satie's "Gymnopédie No. 1" playing when that happens. It's the only thing that calms me down. Surf Wisely. Edit: Changed "mult" to "multi".

Another thing no one tells you about VPN’s is that any time you log into a personal bank account or otherwise verify your identity with the VPN on, you’re no longer protected. Companies are really good at figuring out who you are, VPN’s are just a layer of protection that is easily destroyed if you’re not extremely mindful about what you do while you’re using them.
