Re: Is there a CPAN module that distorts an image to make it only human-readable?

Why not skip all of these horribly annoying ideas? If some spammer/evildoer really wants to get your site bad, (s)he can hire some idiots who will fill out a form.

Please, oh please stop the madness...

Hire an idiot? Not needed. Just setup your own site ("free pr0n") that requires "visual identification", and show your new users the images that you've copied from the site you want to have access to. Easily automated.	[reply]

Ooh, that's very clever. And probably impossible to counter. "What should it profit a man, if he should win a flame war, yet lose his cool?"	[reply]

It amazes me the ingenuity. Get other people to do the work for you. Brilliant. If you give a man a fish he will eat for a day. If you teach a man to fish he will buy an ugly hat. If you talk about fish to a starving man, you're a consultant.	[reply]
