In the pursuit of ridding the annoying CAPTCHAs from Chrome, Google is introducing an important feature called auto-verify to it’s native browser.
Available for testing on Chrome’s Canary version, the auto-verify will store cookie-like data in your browser whenever you fill in a CAPTCHA to one website – and be used by all other sites for instant verification, without needing you to fill in again.
No More Frequent CAPTCHA Fillings
One of the many things that haven’t changed for years in the field of technology is CAPTCHA – a method where one proves he’s an actual human for accessing a website’s content. Though this verification kept spam requests off the coast, it’s still annoying for regular users to pass through.
And browser developers have done little to nothing to replace this. Though Google came up with a ReCAPTCHA V2 solution – which replaced the squiggly word boxes with simple checks – it’s still not enough. Thus, the company has now come up with a better solution called the auto-verify system.
Under this, the Chrome browser will initially store a cookie-like data pack of a CAPTCHA you filled in for a website: and use the same for other similar websites to let you through. Thus, you’ll not need to fill in those boxed CAPTCHAs on every site you visit – but simply let Chrome do it in the background.
Google has quietly added a new "Auto-verify" page in Chrome Settings, Chromium developers call this feature "anti-abuse" and it was added in February, but I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere:https://t.co/OBYo9b3h9r pic.twitter.com/xhVqyaqpnH
