      As a someone who works behind a corporate proxy, where dozens are sharing a single external ip, I can tell that the puzzle is really 20% of what actually goes on.

      1. Mouse tracking
      2. Identifiable browsing tracking data extraction
      3. Automatic rejection for unusual high traffic

      As a rule of thumb, any thing that requires Google CAPTCHA, I do it out of the corporate network.

        Can you explain that? Are you saying these captchas are tracking the user or adding to a profile? All captchas or just image ones?

          Capthas aren’t looking for perfect answers, it’s looking for a close answer with human-like interaction.
