,----[ Quote ]
| Looks like nothing is safe from becoming an advertisement these days. A newly
| surfaced Microsoft patent application proposes to create ads out of human
| interactive proofs, also known as CAPTCHAs, those lines of fuzzy or distorted
| text or images used by websites to confirm that submissions are coming from
| real human beings, not automated online bots.
