I fairly often get challenged by ReCAPTCHA - in particular on certain sites where I vote for games - but also on sites with authentication. This seems to happen on PC and mobile. The challenges typically involve answering 3 or 4 challenges per sessions as well. I'm not sure if it's something with my IP or the way I interact with it or the site's it's used on but it happens more than not and is not simply 1 challenge.

Google Recaptcha is the only one I approve for use. It works without a challenge (except in very rare instances) and is relatively easy to use.
This one sounds pretty awful, but I damit I have not tried it.
