True inclusion means simplicity, dignity, and empathy.

When we know the common, image-clicking type of Captcha adds friction for humans,
and anti-spam functions that run in the background can block spam just as effectively,
it gives rise to cynicism:
"Have you tried clicking on all of the photos that contain traffic lights about it?"
