The image Javier posted shows that harder-to-solve reCAPTCHAs exist on
the Internet, but it does not show them in the Tor Browser
specifically. If you run into this issue again, can you please take a
screenshot of the browser and let me know which exit relay you are
using? It could be that Google is serving harder-to-solve reCAPTCHAs
only to certain IP addresses, not to all Tor exit relays.
