Description-en: client library for reCAPTCHA and Mailhide
This Python package provides modules implementing clients for both
reCAPTCHA and reCAPTCHA Mailhide.
.
reCAPTCHA hinders automated abuse of web sites (such as comment spam
or bogus registrations) by using a CAPTCHA to try to ensure that
humans are involved.
.
reCAPTCHA Mailhide allows web sites to obfuscate email addresses,
revealing them only if a reCAPTCHA is solved.
.
These modules access a web service that requires sites running the
reCAPCHA client to register (at no cost) for an API key. On the other
hand, no imaging libraries or complex computations are needed to
generate and check CAPTCHAs.
