People don't realize how bad captcha is for accessibily until they see older people do it. It might as well be a dark souls boss.

The problem is that business aren't even aware how many false positives captcha is costing them because obvious every denied user in captchas eyes is a bot with no exceptions or false positive information. People from poorer countries are especially more vulnerable as their fingerprint profiles are of lower quality.

So if you're an older person from lower economic development country traveling you're at serious risk of being left out of the internet.
