THIS HAPPENS EVERY DAMN TIME I TRY TO LOG IN!! The text is completely unreadable. It takes usually 6+ tries and dozens of reloading the text to get one I can kinda guess the letters of. It is anything but "easy for us humans" and nothing but an annoyance that DOES NOT HELP WITH SECURITY. Just read this: https://www.komando.com/happening-now/355395/captcha-codes-are-more-than-just-annoying-theyre-putting-your-security-at-risk. This is completely useless.

They dont support NMM anymore and the re-captcha is a damn joke.

Google ReCaptcha doesn't just check if you're human, it identifies you as a specific individual and tracks your travels across the Internet (e.g. including sites with Google captcha logins). When you use their recaptcha, they also place / update a Google cookie to remember where you individually have been / your activities. They use a mix of fingerprinting techniques (anonymity-defeating techniques), including examining all info about your browser, including which browser addons you have installed. In other words, it's Google.

customtemplar Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 This is a step in the right direction, but SMS based 2FA is not very robust as its vulnerable to interception. Hopefully TOTP 2FA can be implemented soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozzyfan Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 (edited) I'd prefer a tap/click-to-solve authentication to ones where you have to type out words. More convenient for mobile phone users. Edited August 3, 2018 by ozzyfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyHonor Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 This is so dumb. I usually like the sites upgrades, but this one is nothing but a pain. When I accessed it with my pc all I had to do is click "I am not a robot." When I accessed it with my cellphone I had to do the captcha thing that was nearly impossible to read. I finally had to use the audio thingie to say it for me. If it has to be there it would make much more sense to only have to click the I am not a robot for cell access and do the captcha thing for your pc browser.

Been there, had that.This can happen if you do not enable cookies from third-party sites (such as Google) or destroy them too quickly. You definitely need to enable persistent cookies from "*.Nexus.com" to avoid most of the recaptcha annoyance on your personal device.makes me wounder what they have agents robots . .

It's not their fault that your older hardware can't seem to exactly keep up. And it's not money issues, it's security issues. They need to enhance their security otherwise the risks of them getting hacked are higher. Edited September 13, 2018 by KamranMackey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't even have to be an app. I've seen it done by text message as well.I strongly second the motion for an optional TOTP-based 2FA system. It's really not that hard to set up, and considerably more secure than email-based 2fa - nor is it subject to email delays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact it's such an annoyance that I got feed up and now just use jdownload2 and it's niffy little Captcha solver to avoid logging in via a browser > but we feel these systems are necessary to help ensure that our services are not compromised Lol then you're wrong. No other website does this, not to mention that if you actually cared about the risk of compromised you'd set up some sort of proper 2 factor auth instead of this disgrace of a email system. Yea no need to worry about compromise when anyone with access to my email account can read my 2fa codes. There's also the fact that this terrible system doesn't even bother to make the user fill in the code every time, so if my computer is ever compromised your 2fa won't mean s#*! > When enabled, this system serves two purposes. First, it is designed to keep your account secure by ensuring that you, and only you, have access to your account No. It ensures that anyone with access to my computer or my email can access my account. I mean really how hard is it to set up a OTP system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
