Google expands reCAPTCHA with a new verification method - Emerce
Summary
Google is expanding reCAPTCHA with a new verification method that asks users to perform simple hand gestures in front of a camera. The feature is designed to strengthen protection against advanced bots and AI systems that can bypass traditional CAPTCHA tests. Google says the camera use is optional, the video is not tied to identity, no audio is recorded, and the clip is deleted after verification. Users who cannot use the gesture challenge can still rely on the existing visual or audio options. The update reflects Google’s effort to keep human verification effective as automated systems improve.
