How is it corruption? The website’s owners consciously choose to use said bouncer who has agreed to accept compensation in the form of making the website’s visitors solve captcha.


Do you think that's universally true, like website _owners_ (as opposed to developers) realise captchas are a thing? Seems unlikely to me; the dev setup a cdn, the owner mightn't even know what that is.

That's a problem of literacy, but it is still their fault and their responsibility as owners of the site.
