Inaccessibility of CAPTCHA - Honeypots [SEC=UNOFFICIAL]

Hi

RE: http://www.w3.org/TR/turingtest/#honeypots


This section points to the Hilton Hotel Corporation’s sign-in page as a good example of a honeypot.  I checked and it appears they’ve switched to using reCaptcha instead.

Perhaps it would be a good idea to publish a good example to the W3C website?  That way, changes in policy/design by third party exemplars would not cause these issues in the future.

I am keep to replace our Captcha widget with a honeypot to stop BOT registrations in case you can point me to another site that (still) uses this technique.

Hope this helps …
