    I think the point is that they don't know you're a robot until you tell them. Perhaps you're happy for an actual robot to log into your account and do whatever it likes but Plenti would prefer that didn't happen. It would seem a little perverse to close your account because they are concerned for its safety notwithstanding the enormous effort and inconvenience to you of having to tick a box. :rolleyes:

    Well, How many times should you tell them? For each and every login access? That doesn't make sense. I expect "I'm not robot" question only if there is a suspicious activity happened around the account. THEY SHOULD KNOW THAT. THE ROBOT TOO.

      Is this a Turing test?

      You always obtain more by being rather polite and armed than polite only.

        Everytime when I try to access Plenti account, it just asks me that. I know I'm not robot and won't be. It's that so clear. I'm this close to close the account.

          Just once. And then if you happen to download some malware bot then it's your fault if your account is maliciously accessed. :-\

              Yes, of course, it has to be on every log-in. Otherwise there's no point at all. You'd look pretty silly if you only did it every 10th log-in and a robot was logging in on every 11th! And it's a bit late to be doing it after suspicious activity, Shirley!

                      What is the point of login then? If Every login associates to I'm not robot, to me it would be an idiotic idea. It just like asking your security question and answer on every login. It won't give good user experience as I see it from Plenti.

                                Humans require no assistance in getting dumber... it's the one thing they excel at. If you need proof, go to YouTube or watch the news. :sigh:

                                      FYI that check is the lowest level of Google's ReCaptcha. IIRC It means the hive mind is fully convinced you're human but someone else is insisting Google serve you one anyway. Thinking outloud: If it's not a common problem (check Google); my first thought would be to wonder if your privacy/content blocking settings are interfering with its ability to store a captcha passed cookie/etc in your browser.

                                      Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.

                                        Regardless of who made it, Plenti has it and they are not using it properly. That what I'm feeling now.

                                          Everytime when I try to access Plenti account, it just asks me that. I know I'm not robot and won't be. It's that so clear. I'm this close to close the account.

                                          Funny, you sound rather robotic.
