I’m not sure how effective captchas really are at filtering out bots. But if they do work, I’d much rather have my efforts contribute to a public good like OSM rather than feeding data to Google, which seems to be the default these days.

If anyone from OSM is listening, it would be great to have a way to flag malicious uses of captchas, like in phishing attempts. The existing captcha platforms make this very hard.
