Thought for the day
-
You know those "CAPTCHA" things used to check folk using apps and websites are actually real people?
You know how they always make you check a box to say "I'm not a robot"?
Oughtn't they really say "To the best of my knowledge, I am not a robot"?
Millions of us could be being forced to lie through no fault of our own, and I wouldn't want to get blacklisted from anywhere on account of someone else's laziness.

Pretty soon those bellend hipster web administrators will be giving us full on Voight Kampf tests (which I wouldn't mind, because the one on Bladerunner 2049 looks like tremendous fun, almost like jazz scat).

Highly implausible... more a hypothetical musing for a potential future
