Be reassured: we understand (but easily forget, so feel free to remind
us!)
What is the opinion of audio captchas? That is, do they actually
work, and are they a significant inconvenience even if they are at
least in theory possible to use for blind persons? Google ReCAPTCHA
implements an audio recaptcha option, for example.
Some audio CAPTCHA's are ok, some are virtually impossible to
decipher. Also, audio CAPTCHAs do not work at all for deaf-blind persons.
So, while it depends, audio CAPTCHA is a mixed experience at best,
and impossible at worst.
