Do the whole process all over again because the remember this device is on step 2 and it’s impossible to go back
Bonus stage 0: special login URL decided to crap out, and going back to any point in history automatically redirects to the error page that you can’t use to log in, so you need to keep going back and trying to copy the URL before it redirects becausw Firefox interprets pressing “stop” as “do whatever you want idk”
Oh fuck, the stone piles -thing is the worst of those. Tiny images, badly generated so you can’t see shit, multiple rounds that have six or so images each round, you can’t make a single mistake, and you get to know did you make any mistakes only after completing all of the rounds. It’s straight up abuse
Once I had to try over five times and still kept failing, so I just gave up. I guess I’m not a human anymore
I actually like seeing those, when I have time, because I assume they are training ai with it and using my selections as tagging data.
Pick all the cars: nope, everything but cars.
I’m probably the reason you fail, because I’m poisoning the data and reducing the confidence scores for the tags.
I remember when doing those captcha felt like improving computer science and that was a positive thing, teaching computers to see. How quickly we’ve fallen.
I remember doing this with the text based captchas a decade or so ago. For a while it was pretty obvious which word was the control word and which was the one you were being data mined for, so it was always fun to throw a swear or something in there for the lulz to poison the data.
This is because of Enterprise Single Sign On. You can try this for yourself by going to https://gmail.com/ and enter the email of a public person at a large org, for example the CEO of Doordash (tony@doordash.com). After you enter the email, you get sent to Doordash’s employee portal to authenticate. Based on the email you provide, Gmail has to figure out if you need to provide a password to gmail itself or if the email authenticates another way.
It’s not like you can’t add a “Log in with your company’s SSO” button to the form. That works just fine and at least Microsoft does something like that.
Not sure I’d take design inspiration from Microsoft of all places. Also https://login.live.com/ has the same workflow email -> continue -> password. Not sure where you’re seeing Log in with SSO option.
Not that strange. Different users may belong to different groups which may have different authentication backends. The associated authentication method is brought up once a username has been provided.
Also This strange trend to split username and password on to two separate pages, or only showing the password field after confirming the username

Fucking aws…
You forgot step 2.5: incorrectly identifying stoplights 6 times in a row.

Yes, but, it also lets them slurp up email addresses. Routing users is legit tho.
