Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Providing a sequence of letters and numbers from an image is a common way to establish that a user is a human and not a software bot. This process, known as CAPTCHA, can help prevent automated account creation and spamming. Providing contact details or alternative email addresses does not necessarily prove that the user is not a bot, and uploading a photo or identification marks may be unnecessary and invasive.
