We live in an age where we have to prove to machines that we are not a machine. Why is CAPTCHA necessary? The questions it asks or the box you have to check next to "I am not a Robot" does not seem to prevent anything. Does it really matter if I'm a Robot or not. Robot's aren't any major threat to me creating a blog,account,whatever other personal thing. It just seems silly.
Do you find CAPTCHA effective?

CAPATCHA rules out possibility of ghost users. Earlier there used to be some softwares, which could generate hundreds of responses/comments/blogs on a post but after the introduction of CAPATCHA, only genuine (human beings) users could log on to any site/application.

It certainly does not stop a scammer or bad person.

That is so true. They definitely need to come up with better screening for scammers and such.

@symomach Sometimes. But whats the threat in artificial machines creating a blog or an email account, you know? It's not like they're accessing top secret info. Would a machine even need to access such useless accounts? But who knows haha.
