Hi @Tutanota

I want you to know that your CAPTCHA is inaccessible for disabled people:
- blind people can't see the clock;
- visually impaired people may not be able to see it correctly too;
- dyscalculic people (like me!!) have difficulties reading a clock (moreover when all numbers are not written on it)!

I think this @w3c documentation should interest you to fix it: w3.org/TR/turingtest/

I hope you will do something so that everyone can use your services. Thanks.

A captcha where you need to copy the hour displayed on the image of a clock where you can see 3, 6, 9, 12 and other numbers are dots.

Inaccessibility of CAPTCHA

Various approaches have been employed over many years to distinguish human users of web sites from robots. The traditional CAPTCHA approach asking users to identify obscured text in an image remains common, but other approaches have emerged.

We currently do not have an accessibility policy but we have brought this up with the team to consider. Regarding accessibility, our team is constantly working to improve it - including the captcha :)
