ReCAPTCHA.net Now Vulnerable to Algorithmic Attack

n3ond4x writes "reCAPTCHA.net algorithms have been developed to solve the current CAPTCHA at an efficacy of 30%. The algorithms were disclosed at DEFCON 18 over the weekend and have since been made available online. Also available is a video demonstration of random reCAPTCHA.net CAPTCHAs being subjected to the algorithms." There's probably an excellent Firefox plugin to render this page's color scheme more bearable. Note: the PowerPoint presentation linked opens fine in OpenOffice, and the video speaks for itself.

The quote is: "My eyes! The goggles do nothing!".
There is no "they", nor is there any bad pronunciation. Indeed, it is correctly articulated and enunciated, with an accent.
