reCAPTCHA Knows

Life 2 July 2009 | 3 Comments

creepy_recaptchaSo I have been working on a project that needs a reCAPTCHA validation that is a bit customized. Well while I was working on it I had to refresh the page quite a few times and some how it came up with my last name. I am taking that to be a bit creepy, I mean what are the odds of that actually happening it must be really remote. I wonder what it will know next…

    I love this! I’m fully expecting a Baldwin concert on Monday morning. I will have a request list prepared. You’ll probably want to get familiar with Celine Dion lyrics.

    Well, I can tell you that my last name is VERY rare (especially in this country (not the one listed above)) and it came up on a reCAPTCHA verification on a craigslist posting. It is very creepy, given that reCAPTCHA has the appearance of an unconnected, innocuous program or app.
