Love or hate CAPTCHAs but sometimes they are big defence against bots and spammers. They do need to be configured correctly though so as not to become annoying with repeated requests.
So for those who do implement them on websites it is worth considering that Google reCAPTCHA is very likely abusing the privacy of your users. hCaptcha is aligned to the European Union’s GDPR and California’s CCPA.
