CAPTCHAs are a challenge-response test used in computing to determine whether the user is human or not.
[Tor](../tor-tor-network-core-tor) users are often served CAPTCHAS because Tor [relays](../relay) make so many requests that sometimes websites have a hard time determining whether or not those requests are coming from humans or bots.

Unfortunately, some websites deliver CAPTCHAs to Tor users, and we are not able to remove CAPTCHAs from websites.
The best thing to do in these cases is to contact the website owners, and inform them that their CAPTCHAs are preventing users such as yourself from using their services.
