No offense intended of course! 
I’d like to know why it’s so thoroughly broken on some sites.
Just recently some site decreed that my password on that site was no longer valid and that I needed to change it. Before I could request a password reset URL, I had to do a Recaptcha. Clicked the right boxes, got the green checkmark, clicked the link, got sent back to the same page with “You have to complete the Captcha!” Lather, rinse, repeat ad nauseam. ARRGH!

Some CAPTCHAs are not human readable. Think about that for a moment.

Yeah, I agree, we should remove videos from the internet. Oh wait – all of the main points of the piece are made both verbally AND visually. And there’s captions. Are you biased against illiterate people perhaps?
What do you expect from me??? I tried to look up how it was spelled but the online dictionary was TV;DR

Robots are unable to click on them because lying is a micro-agression against humans, and would hence break Asimov’s first law.

I suspect robots are masquerading as human author Matt Forbeck. In fact, it’s probably robots all the way down.
