Testing to meeting human standards

Different websites use different forms of verifying that you're human. Apple has nothing to do with what other websites choose to use. Generally, there is a link at the bottom that allows you to select an accessible version of the CAPTCHA.

Huh? I get the new iPhone every year, and this year I updated a number of our devices and not once ever, have I had to do any type of human test? It's hard for us to help you, when none of us are aware of what you saw. I can't find any Apple documentation or even using an AI search can I find anything which suggests Apple has any process like this.

Sorry to differ, but I have been setting up new Apple devices for years, and as recently as a few months ago. I have NEVER encountered a CAPTCHA screen which is what you are describing, nor an “Authenticator” (whatever that is in this context) when setting one.

You need to describe and identify what EXACTLY you are doing, because it would appear it isn’t what you think it is.

Like Kilgore-Trout, I've never encountered such a confirmation when setting up a new Apple device. And I've probably sent up thousands (I used to work for Verizon Wireless).
