    The original captchas were to help computers read scanned books for OCR. It was a neat solution that had value where it prevented abuse on websites and helped open up knowledge to people.

    Now captchas aren’t needed because of cookies and fingerprinting and tech companies know if you’re malicious or not. They kept it going because it’s so valuable to tech companies.
