At some point there needs to be a check if it's a real human... But it's a cat and mouse game - any way we create to keep bots off gets a work around by clever engineers.

What makes a real human?

  • CC payment. This is the ultimate test.

    • Hard disagree, it's very easy for a bot to use a credit card. And not only are card numbers often stolen, they're even given to teenagers these days, and can also be owned by businesses and exist entirely virtually... so I don't think you can assume the use of a credit card can always be tied to legitimate use by a single person.
