Issue description

As a user, I'm often asking to fill recaptcha to access website. It asks me sometimes to recognize ten images. I do it sometimes to access content that I pay for and have the feeling to work for free for Google image recognition system: that is not fair. I'm ok to help Google but not for free so I propose the following: each recaptcha solve credit an amount of "token" to the available google account that would be convertible to Google services access for example (like increasing free storage on gmail). There could be also an automatic content creator reward like Brave does (and reducing advertising).

I know the issue is quite out of context since that the topic is larger than the PHP library so let me know if I knock at the wrong door! 😸

Environment

  • OS name and version: All OS and version
  • PHP version: N/A
  • Web server name and version: All server using recaptcha
  • google/recaptcha version: All version
  • Browser name and version: All browser and version

Reproducing the issue

Just solve a recaptcha.

User steps

  1. Count the number of recaptcha you solved in your life
  2. Multiply it by the average time you need to solve it
  3. Look at the amount of time you worked for free
  4. Get angry
  5. Put a thumb up on this issue
