> Anyone who has a form on the internet knows that without any sort of captcha, you get lots of stupid bots just typing in jumbo.
I recall a form of "CAPTCHA" that involved a text input which was hidden via CSS, but which bots would fill in anyway. Any text in the input caused the entire form to be rejected. I wonder if that style still works today.
I've had an issue with this approach -- many browsers (via autofill/autocomplete) and many password managers (when filling in password, e-mail, etc.) tend to also get trapped in this honeypot... The spam does still get stopped though.
