    Captcha solver add-on? Had no idea about that. If a captcha can be solved this way, why is still being used? What’s the point?

      To decrease the amount of spam. There is a misunderstanding, the same with anti-cheat. Captchas will always be solvable, there will always be people who cheat. The point is not to eliminate all bots / cheaters, but to only have to deal with a smaller number of them.
