Encrypted email provider Proton has built its own CAPTCHA service | TechCrunch(techcrunch.com)

Some used to have an audio button where they read the letters in different voices / accents and there’s a ton of weird background noise and static. It was super annoying.

I know that hCaptcha has a system where they send you an email containing a link to a page, which will set a cookie in your browser telling the CAPTCHA to auto-flag you as verified.

Of course, good luck if your browser blocks third-party cookies, you don’t browse in incognito mode, or if your screen reader can interact with the CAPTCHA to get the link in the first place…
