False promises of security.

Yeah, my sub choice wasn't the best. I think it's mildly interesting though.

If it worked it definitely would be. We're at a point of the cat and mouse game of bot and anti-bot tools where the humans can no longer win and hide it from the machines. This project in particular would have been defeated from OCR in the 90s even. Maybe it would stop some boomer normies, but that's not the usual threat model.

Photo and OCR from my phone. No problem. Slower than scrapping the text, but very doable.

Edit: Even funnier, he thinks that it will work for HTML, too. I predict some sharp crypto coder will render that useless about an hour after its release.
