Following the news about the Flickr redesign and 1TB of free storage, I tried logging in into my Flickr photostream using my Yahoo! credentials (note: I haven’t been logging in into Yahoo! that much recently) to check out the new interface. But upon log in I was greeted with this CAPTCHA verification:

yahoo-signin-captcha-image

The CAPTCHA image doesn’t appear on me. That’s just too lousy! Is this the same Yahoo! that acquired Tumblr? I’m afraid it is!

Yahoo! employs this rigorous login and verification process, and yet a lot of Yahoo! email accounts are still hijacked and used to send spam messages.

P.S. I tried the audio code verification process, and it worked after straining my ears so hard to listen to the audio message.
