Google updates hair-pulling CAPTCHA with tick box

Google's reCAPTCHA is a free anti-abuse service to protect users' websites from spam and abuse. The good news is that the CAPTCHA test can be tossed for many users, replaced with a simple one-box tick saying you're human, not a robot. No mangled text; no frustrating fails because you can't tell if it's a g or a q or if that m is supposed to be two letters instead. Easy. A single checkbox next to the statement "I'm not a robot." Gets you where you want to go.
