    Nothing on that page says it’ll be forced upon you - it sounds like just another verification method alongside the regular reCAPTCHA ones.

    I mean, I’m all for shitting on Google but I really doubt they’re gonna prevent people who may not have a webcam from signing into Youtube as they need that sweet ad revenue. Others using Google’s reCAPTCHA might but as someone else posted, the accessibility options that are available on any Google reCAPTCHA will remain so just click on the visually impaired option and listen to the robot read out a captcha for you if anything

    Accessibility

    For users with accessibility needs who cannot use hand gestures to complete the challenge, reCAPTCHA continues to provide visual and audio challenges, and develop more accessible and secure alternatives.

    A bone thrown our way, how long will this last? Anyway, fuck Google, as always.

    Google does not retain any images or videos of a user’s hand gestures beyond the verification process or use the data for any other purpose. Videos or images are automatically deleted after the challenge is complete.
