Rumola is fantastic, but I'm a little bit worried about the privacy issues. What I didn't realise when I first started using it is that it uses real life people to solve the CAPTCHAs for us. I'm not sure if it sends each webpage you open to someone to determine whether there is a CAPTCHA or

Well, I'm not sure how much they see. I know that one day there was a field to put in a coupon and rumola attempted to solve it as a captcha; I would think that if they saw everything is would have been obvious that this wasn't a captcha. We each have to draw our own lines when it comes to

Yes, that's right. Rumola still works with the screen curtain turned on, because presumably the people solving the CAPTCHAs are sent a picture of the screen with the screen curtain off. I just wish there was a way to ensure people can't see my screen until I want to solve a CAPTCHA. So that
