mCaptcha doesn't prove you're a human, it only proves you're not a spamming bot.
What I am asking for is a reverse Turing test. Because there will come a time that any single site will need you to prove you are a human to do any action, i.e. post a reply or create an account.
We need a better plan than CAPTCHA that takes minutes to solve every time someone needs that type of proof.
I know government ID schemes are awful for privacy, but that is the only decent solution I can think of. If we, the computer people, do not have a better solution, the government will solve it for us, big tech will adopt it, and we have opened the doors to total surveillance.
