The thing I've always read about these is that they tend to discriminate
against those for whom the language isn't their native language.
Math problems are generally agreed to be reasonably universal, however,
tho that can change if wording is chosen to try to defeat a machine
solution (running into the language problem again). Spelling captchas...
tend to run into problems with folks that can't spell. That's apparently
a big enough problem a lot of sites try and reject spelling captchas.
Perhaps a mix such that users can try again with a different category,
however...
