And similarly, you can have CAPTCHAs in situations that are not "authentication" scenarios, such as being challenged with a CAPTCHA before being able to proceed to a download. Here the CAPTCHA is not trying to *authenticate* the user (determine *who* the user is, their identity) but only trying to establish that it's a human and not a bot. These scenarios would not be covered by this SC, but still be problematic. P -- Patrick H.
