I was banned from the hCaptcha accessibility account for not being blind (2023)

Some captchas are getting pretty discriminatory, not everyone lives in the West and can identify the objects they are asking you to. Another recent one sticks out where they asked me to pick a shape as the same number of conoids on screen. If you ask people on a street what a conoids I bet a significant amount will give you blank looks

Also at least now I know some people call those markings crosswalks

Sorry I live in the west, what's a "crosswalk"

Did you mean to say

> not everyone lives in the USA

Other things I don't have a clue about - a fire hydrant, yellow taxis, yellow buses

(Obviously I do, because of American cultural imperialism through things like Captchas which mean the world has to understand American cultural touchstones)

Please enter your five-digit ZIP code

90210

(Cue theme music in mind's ear)

That’s my zip code too, along with millions of others who live outside the US. Haven’t needed to use it for a while.

Similarly, on websites that require a British address I use “10 Downing Street” (the only one I know!)
