Hi Beth,
The verification slide proved to be a bit too unreliable to filter humans from bots.
The new system is a completely local and self contained algorithm that analyzes the user’s behavior from the time the login/post form is “called” and can (with extraordinary accuracy) determine if you’re a human automatically.
In other words, it takes a bot to know a bot
In other other words, there are no additional steps required as from the user to login, everything is done automatically now.
If the checkmark is green, you’re good to go 🙂
