Captcha in general are annoying to customers there is no point having them today too be fair. I would consider bot visits these days as potential costumers seeing how they can buy stuff online now. If your blocking your sites because your afraid they are scraping and using it for training. Then you are just blocking the small timers likely those people who wants to democratized AI like Deepseek. While the biggest culprit like Google’s web crawlers have free rain to train on your data. Those who are determined will would just pass that to captcha farm.


Even worst there is a huge privacy concern here. Google would associate who’s browsing anonymously in desktop with their phones which Google has more access on your information. It is already a privacy concern before but at that time they go in a roundabout way, today we just give them the platter.
