What does HackerNews think of buster?

Captcha solver extension for humans

Language: JavaScript

The captcha buster extension[^0] along with the service on you computer to move the mouse for you works very very well. It uses google’s TTS (afaik) to transcribe the audio captcha. It’s google verifying another google service works well. I find it very satisfying to not provide my labor to train googles computer vision corpus but instead have the snake bite it’s own tail.

Anyway, I highly recommend buster, I barely notice captchas anymore with it.

Which is why I'm always using buster[1] when facing captchas.

reCAPTCHA allows for audio challenges as accessibility fallback. And this has been a loophole for a long time to automatically solve them via google's own speech-to-text API https://github.com/dessant/buster

buster is a technically legal software designed to show how easy it is to bypass google recaptcha.... if this continues to work, why not a third party SAAS that allows the same thing via an api?
