This is funny.

Professional spammers and blackhat profiteers openly boast that they own  KeyCAPTCHA.com antispam protection.

.

It was an open secret for a very long time  that its support@keycaptcha.com is in list of known spammers (difficult or impossible to unsubscribe from a service once subscribed) as well as there were reports that KeyCAPTCHA.com’s antispam protection collects Emails.. .

.

I’ve got a 3d-party Email confirming this (I leave contacts as they are publicly available on the internet)

From:  gloria<at>gloriarand.com
  to Gennady <Censored@gmail.com>

subject Fwd: Changes in KeyCAPTCHA Terms of Service
.

Check out this email I got today. I don’t recall signing up for their service.

KeyCAPTCHA.com antispam service created viral publicity of its service as absolutely free, having involved in this campaign many others unaware.

KeyCAPTCHA Under Money Rain Attack (Credit to depositphotos.com)

KeyCAPTCHA Under Money Rain Attack (Credit to depositphotos.com)

KeyCAPTCHA.com creators being professional spammers and blackhat profiteers routinely use  Email and forum spam (See also: “Antispam KeyCAPTCHA.com Spam“) , spinning software,  content farms to fill internet with spam promoting its antispam KeyCAPTCHA service.

One of the latest examples devoted to slandering me personally was botted by hundreds identical texts over the internet

what technically and legally constitutes as forum spam

Here are my answers to it:

.

“The person spreading a slander and a lie regarding the KeyCAPTCHA Service uses different nicknames on different web resources” [1-2]

My answer:

I have to use multiple accounts since they were deleted by the requests of KeyCAPTCHA.com without any check of facts.

By the way, most was created due to instructions of ex-employer KeyCAPTCHA.com, before the date of my dismissal (May, 2011) and if it insists, I can expose them publicly.

Please read my “KeyCAPTCHA, I’m a Liar – Pants on Fire – Was I Good or Bad?”

,

I do not post in the same site under different nicknames and accounts as it is routinely being done by KeyCAPTCHA.com continuing to spam forums under multiple nicknames (usernames, accounts) in the same topic.
For example, KeyCAPTCHA account and its clones (babnicks, Drew_007) were banned in http://forum.searchengines.ru for aggressive spamming, off-topic, flame (personal insulting of its concurrent business in Russia)  in the same topic!

I do publish only part of truth which is is easily available for check in public access on the internet!

“You can find it out by googling “KeyCAPTCHA is under attack” (quoted)” [1-2]

My answer:
Well, you can’t find all because exact copies of the same text are blacklisted by search engines but I give the partial (that I could find) list of references (URLs) below [1].

KeyCAPTCHA.com:
“This person extorted money from our employee. And he had been caught by the police when he was taking the money” [1-2]

My answer:
I could not extort money from KeyCAPTCHA’s employee because I was informed by this “employer”, already  after my dismissal  that company that hired me (I am in Russia), was not registered legal company having changed its previous alleged locations (now it is US-based Mersane) and legally could not have employees

Also read:

.

KeyCAPTCHA.com:
“This person alleges that he had been our employee. But it is the lie.
We are not going to conceal that he assisted us in supporting our twitter account.
But after the numerous reprimands regarding the quality of his messages on our twitter, we had fulfilled all our obligations to this person and renounced his assistance” [1-2]

My answer:

This is already 7th variant of my story by KeyCAPTCHA.com I am reading about me.
The 1st one was that I had never worked in KeyCAPTCHA.com,
stole @KeyCAPTCHA twitter account with the help of which I  extorted money
(Isn’t it reidiculous that someone can extort thousands UDSs by stealing a twitter account?)
Read my post:  “How I Stole My Own KeyCAPTCHA Twitter Account”

I was employed as Software Developer in Test.

Getting job for supporting a twitter account with my qualifications and experience is ridiculous

Read also: “Who Stole @KeyCAPTCHA Twitter Account?”

KeyCAPTCHA.com:
“But he has never been an employee of our company.
We just had a verbal agreement with this person” [1-2]

My answer:
By Russian Labor Legislature and Employment Laws, the  employment is being determined by the fact of working employer-employee relationships (working in office, fulfilling working instructions under daily timetable, etc.) but not by writing and signing agreements.
This is quite similar in EU labor legislature.

I was promised the formalization of written contract after 2-month probation which I successfully passed as well as I have thousands proves and witnesses of my work as employer.


KeyCAPTCHA.com: "The Twitter support team had blocked his 3 accounts of his slander and lie 
on the KeyCAPTCHA Service right after our request and his 2 accounts 
without our requests 

Scam.com support team has blocked his 2 accounts of the same lie" [1-2]




My answer:

And I believed that KeyCAPTCHA’s efficiency was, at least 80% while it is  just 1-2/7=71%


I shall publish the list of banned for spamming KeyCAPTCHA accounts soon


Also, read my article: “Why Twitter Supports Criminals?”


.




KeyCAPTCHA.com:

“We are not going to reply to his future messages on this website. It is not our goal.

 We just wanted to publish the facts regarding this person” [1-2]




My answer:

KeyCAPTCHA’s spambot has a bug.

It swears everywhere multiple times in the same threads that it is its last reply .


For example, there are the same promise in the same threads with continued self-talking thereafter:



.


KeyCAPTCHA.com:

“Our service and company are absolutely legal.


Here are the variants of using KeyCAPTCHA:” [1-2]


My answer:


The facts are that KeyCAPTCHA.com continues to use intentionally deceptive, misleading, false and fraudulent marketing and advertising I published before  and none of them has ever been addressed (if to ignore the attacks on my Multiple Nym Disorder Syndrome induced by my experience from working in and protecting from KeyCAPTCHA.com)

Dear Visitors,


The person spreading a slander and a lie regarding the KeyCAPTCHA Service uses different nicknames on different web resources.

 He thinks up his new slander and lie from time to time.

Spamming web sites with links to fool search engines was always doomed game because it irritated both owners of web resources and visitors.


Also, even appearing of website in top of  SERP (Search Engine Result Pages) did not mean having marketing success


So, the recent trend is to deliver unwarranted advertising, aka spam, directly to visitors without leaving spam on web resources (sites, blogs, etc.) as well as to bribe (sorry, share profits with) owners of web resources.

Though, what’s the difference?


Earlier his  bots entertained end-user with meaningful spam comments and now with meaningful entertaining spam (puzzle) pictures, leaving  happy not only advertisers but now also owners of web resources.


.


Though, one profound problem remains with this antispam spam scam.

.


Spam or not spam is not determined by happiness of advertisers and advertising intermediaries, even when they are happy with spam owners of web resources,  but by explicit consent of end-users, or visitors of web-resources.

First Free (KeyCAPTCHA Plugin Description)
First Free (KeyCAPTCHA Plugin Description)


It is like in any scam scheme: first, a victim is enticed by an irresistible offer of absolutely free of charge novel (“first”, “innovative”, “sexy”. “unique”, etc.) miracle or easy way to earn money (including interesting job offer like it was for me by KeyCAPTCHA.com). Then you are trapped by a  sneaky change in conditions of bargain (employment)… Accordingly, first, KeyCAPTCHA.com filled the internet with ads of its first absolutely free of charge (“unique”, “novel”, “innovative”, “unbreakable”) anti-spam miracle. It was not only without any advertising but even buyers of commercial fee-based KeyCAPTCHA service were initially prohibited to create CAPTCHAs with any advertising. Then, in the beginning of August, 2011, after bloggers started to write about  and webmasters with sysadmins to advise each other this miracle en masse, KeyCAPTCHA.com changed its ToS convering KeyCAPTCHA from antispam captcha into spam platform.


KeyCAPTCHA Plugin Contribution description in WordPress.org
KeyCAPTCHA Plugin Contribution description in WordPress.org


That is, a webmaster that installed it, cannot avoid spam served through installed KeyCAPTCHA plug-in from KeyCAPTCHA.com’s servers, except “agreeing” to buy “Personalized CAPTCHA” service or uninstalling KeyCAPTCHA plugin.Well, the end-user (a visitor) of a protected web resource, cannot just close your eyes and skip it like with any other spam. KeyCAPTCHA usually blocks access to webresource, like registering for forum, commenting blog article, posting, downloading a file, resetting a forgotten password, etc.

        So, after a storm of angry publications by unhappy webmasters and uninstalls of KeyCAPTCHA plugings, on August 14, 2011, KeyCAPTCHA.com “announced” (by posting a few replies, for example here and there) that the free of charge option of its  service was restored from August 8, 2011 (probably because the last post of KeyCAPTCHA defending its removal was from August 7, 2011, see the same links upward). Novosibirsk time (GMT +6:00)  everywhere in this article.


The most funny thing was that there were no changes in ToS or any descriptions on keycaptcha.com webite whatsoever! But wait, there’s more

										

			

			

				
				
			

		

			

			
How to Lie without being Caught-22 (Lessons Learned from Communicating with KeyCAPTCHA.com)

Wisdom says that a liar should have a good memory. Not true on the internet,  it is enough to manage to change or remove your previous publications.


I and others caught KeyCAPTCHA.com, my former employer, to publicly lie hundreds times and you will not find any such publications.


From my observations, the posts on the forums based on WCMSs  (Web Content Management System)  like



usually let to change posts later, even after replies, whenever an author  likes.


While on


    

  • WordPress
    • 

  • Joomla (after being replied?)
    • 

  • IPB (aka IP.Board, InvsionPower Board) Services, how one should tag it in Social Media, I wonder?
    • 



do not (but only in a few minutes time immediately after posting) .


CSS Tutorials

What’s the point of permitting life-time changing (or deleting) what some has written, even after having dozens replies, I wonder?


One can check the forum’s CMS at the bottom of a web page and double-check it at webpage souce finding a string “generator”. Here is an example of HTML element from WordPress forum HTML-element:


    

  • <meta name=”generator” content=”WordPress 3.2″ />
    • 



What about comments in blogs and posts that cannot be edited/deleted?





That’s also simple. KeyCAPTCHA Team has done it many times. It is enough post personal  attacks on a participant the more and uglier the “better” until any sense is lost, then ask moderators, administrators/owner of the blog to delete the whole topic or branch for a flame and/or off-topic.


100% results of topic ensured to delete a thread, branch or a whole topic!


If the results are not immediate,  just return and do it again and again.


08/19/2011 Update: 


In Soviet Russia, spam activity of spam-captchas block human's access (We have detected spam activity, your actions are blocked)




Hilarious confirmation of this shit-technique employed by KeyCAPTCHA itself.

Read all thread!


“We have detected spam activity, your actions are blocked”


In Soviet Russia, spam activity of spam-captchas block human’s  access 


Another technique is to block writers (blog commenters) through its KeyCAPTCHA by IP-address.


This is very clever to self-advertise you, only fans of KeyCAPTCHA and advertising will be able to use internet soon.

										

			

			

				
				
			

		

			

			
KeyCAPTCHA Spam Platform – Rebutting KeyCAPTCHA.com’s Claims that Spamming is Legal

In my previous article



I wrote about the dispute between the owner of  http://ipbskins.ru, caught unawares by KeyCAPTCHA.com anti-spam service started to serve spam (ads picture puzzles + ads link) and disappearance of previous non-ads free  captcha options.


To Spam. or Not to Spam, That Is Already Not a Question. At least, for KeyCAPTCHA Team
To Spam. or Not to Spam, That Is Already Not a Question. At least, for KeyCAPTCHA Team


In the followed afterwards discussion, in comments to Fisana’s blog and in ipbskins.ru forum post.  KeyCAPTCHA Team re-stated that, according to changes of rules on August 2, 2011,   webmasters have no free no-ads options any more. Now, there are 2 options to use (3d one to stop using) KeyCAPTCHA service ONLY:


    

  •  to buy “Personalized CAPTCHA” service (and serve whatever you want, including your own  captchas without ads)
    • 

  •   to create advertising campaign permitting 3d-party ads to earn money. Hacking to remove ads picture (puzzles) and ads links will lbe punished by ban
    • 

  • to uninstall KeyCAPTCHA plug-in and install alternative measure of anti-spam protection
    • 



So, recapitulating the “new” KeyCAPTCHA’s policies and rules:


    

  1. no opt-in to refuse (unsubsribe)  from ads by addressee
    
In Russia, it is illegal under Part 2 of article  10 of Федеральный Закон Российской Федерации 149-ФЗ от 27 июля 2006 г. “ОБ ИНФОРМАЦИИ, ИНФОРМАЦИОННЫХ ТЕХНОЛОГИЯХ И О ЗАЩИТЕ ИНФОРМАЦИИ”
    2. 

  2. the ads are being provided without prior obligatory consent by addressee
    
In Russia, it is is illegal according to article 18.1 of  Федеральный закон Российской Федерации от 13 марта 2006 г. 38-ФЗ “О рекламе”
    3. 

  3. no option of free of charge service without external/3d-party ads
    
This seems to be available in any other CAPTCHA service, including those promoted as ads platforms
    4. 

  4. impossible to identify of a  person distributing ads:
    
KeyCAPTCHA Team is in Russia,
    
now presents itself as US-based Mersane Ltd.,
    
having presented itself untill the March, 2011 as Joint Stock ITNP (ЗАО ИТНП)
    
under the jurisdiction (see item 10.6) “of the Republic of Seychelles, without regard to conflict-of-laws provisions”
    
In Russia, it is illegal under Part 2 of article  10 of Федеральный Закон Российской Федерации 149-ФЗ от 27 июля 2006 г. “ОБ ИНФОРМАЦИИ, ИНФОРМАЦИОННЫХ ТЕХНОЛОГИЯХ И О ЗАЩИТЕ ИНФОРМАЦИИ”
    5. 

  5. No guarantees or liabilities by KeyCAPTCHA.com , see  item 4 of KeyCAPTCHA’s ToS
    
In Russia, it is illegal under article 12 , article 38 of  Федеральный закон Российской Федерации от 13 марта 2006 г. 38-ФЗ “О рекламе”
    6. 



I cited the laws of Russian Federaration though there are similar statements in the laws of most countries stating that unavoidable advertising (or intrusive or inescapable or indivertible or unpreventable or  encroaching or meddlesome or invasive advertising) is illegal.

Read for example: “Unavoidable Advertising – Is It Legal in the U.S.?”

I skipped EU legislation since US one is the most relaxed.


The KeyCAPTCHa.com Team argues then that:


    

  • unwarranted advertising is omnipresent in TV, printed press, cinema, etc.
    
Well, this is demagoguery –  I can always opt to skip watching or reading unwarranted ads and by this will not block deprive me from access other resources.
    • 

  • that spamming is legal as far as online service informs about it in its ToS  (Terms of Service)
    
No comments:  commit any crime, just don’t forget write your rules for this, even afterwards, as KeyCAPTCHA.com did.

KeyCAPTCHA “Genius” Demagoguery – Antispam Spamming Platform: Why to Buy a Spambot, Buy the Spam-thru-CAPTCHAs Share

			

				August 6, 2011
												4 comments
				

			

			

				
Webmasters has no right to reject the advertising served through KeyCAPTCHA
"Вышел ёжик из тумана, Вынул..." - Webmasters has no right to reject the advertising served through KeyCAPTCHA


Why to buy a  spambot, if one can buy the right to spam through the network of  “anti-spam”  “highly interactive” captchas?


Anti-spam CAPTCHAs as advertising platform are not new.

The new KeyCAPTCHA.com’s “innovation” is that:


    

  • webmasters having installed anti-spam KeyCAPTCHA do not have any control of what is being served served, or spammed through such anti-antispam external KeyCAPTCHA service (including to opt for free non-ads captchas), except its uninstall
    • 

  •  initially it is promoted through non-ads KeyCAPTCHs with following change to obligatory spam without any notice
    • 



Let me cite (in my translation) the dialogue between KeyCAPTCHA Team and the webmaster/sysadmin of  http://ipbskins.ru Fisana in her blog article:



The original article proposed a discovered hack how to continue serving KeyCAPTCHA without spam (ads puzlle + link) and stated about complaints of users and decreased rate of registrations on forum due to unwarranted ads served through KeyCAPTCHA.


The followed in comments dialogue,  briefed by me  + I added links:


    

  • KeyCAPTCHA:
    
Hacking of our KeyCAPTCHA service will be punished by ban according to KeyCAPTCHA Terms of Service and Use Agreement
    • 

  • Fisana: 
    
I was horrified to find out that KeyCAPTCHA plugin setting on keycaptcha.com website does not have an option of non-advertising captchas
    • 

  • KeyCAPTCHA:
    
According to “Publishers” section you can create advertising campaign with your own captchas
    • 

  • Fisana:
    
I do not need advertising campaigns and do not have the time to add my captchas ,  I just  want to continue being served with non-ads pictures.
    • 

  • KeyCAPTCHA (my favorite one):
    
Our service is absolutely gratuitous, if you do not want ads, you can either buy out its abscence or use other alternative solutions (i.e. having uninstalled KeyCAPTCHA plug-in)
    
Besides webmasters’ earning on it, it provides 100% protection from spam-bots
    • 

  • Fisana:
    
This is you right.
    
But, before serving ads, you should have warned your users.
    
When I started to use your service, there was no advertising either in captchas being served or in your ToS!
    
There was a free unconstrained service + fee-based additional unasked options
    
I did not subscribe  ads can be served to my website without my permission or even warning!
    • 

  • KeyCAPTCHA:
    
We warned by Emails only those webmasters whose webresource themes were interesting to our advertisers. No one of warned webmasters stopped using KeyCAPTCHA service but only thanked us
    
The rules at the moment of your registration told:
    • 



“KeyCAPTCHA may at any time revise these Terms of Service by updating this posting. By using KeyCAPTCHA, you agree to be bound by any such revisions and should therefore periodically visit this page to determine the then-current Terms of Service to which you are bound”


Such, or very similar item, is present in most of on-line srvices


    

  •    Fisana:
    
Serving the advertising requies obligatory consent by webmaster
    
KeyCAPTCHA’s Initial ToS (Terms of Service)  did not mention any advertising at all. Adding ads and ads links is the change of  service [my comment: what a naivity, see (*)]
    
And where is the guarantees that next changing of ToS will not bring to my website something illegal (porno, etc.)?
    • 

  • KeyCAPTCHA:
    
Our KeyCAPTCHA always had logo with links to keycaptcha.com website. It was also ads… What’s the difference?
    • 

  • Fisana:
    
Visitors do not like ads pictures/puzzles in captcha. Hadn’t they complained, I’d not have noticed it at all
    • 

  • KeyCAPTCHA:
    
Item 1.17 of our rules is    :
    
“1.17 The User shall not evade, modify, crack or interrupt into the operating mechanisms of the Service and of the Site.
    
Any breach of the Agreement’s Terms results in the suspension of User’s account and access blocking to the Service and the Site.”
    
We reccommend WP-NOTCAPTCHA
    
    YouTube service is inserting advertising into its video stream.
    • 



The comments were truncated by me. You can read them in full using online translator


I was dismissed under invented pretexts because I expressed on many occasions my disagreement with business model based on changing the rules, agreements, ToS which is, in my opinion, is cheating and fraud.


And you, what do you think about?

Dismissal in “Good Will” a-la-KeyCAPTCHA

			

				August 2, 2011
												Leave a comment
				

			

			

				
“Let’s part in good will” a la-KeyCAPTCHA, it is when you offered 11,500 rubles of dismissal payment having 43,000 rubles of unpaid salary (if to forget about few times bigger severance pack) and when you refuse such a generous offer, you are repeatedly threatened by criminal cases for theft in keycaptcha.com office, physical violence, etc.


Then, KeyCAPTCHA.com “company” offers you even more, than one can expect, to compensate your unfair  treatment  and you get caught red-handed by police called by your “employer” during receiving this payout money. It also happens that the KeyCAPTCHA.com “company” which hired you, has never legally existed (except on keycaptcha.com website) and you extorted money (but really rejected them few times) from persons that rented a business offce for keycaptcha.com activities on the internet.


So, instead of employment,  payments of your work or seeking new employment after dismissal,  you are forced to study criminal laws and prepare for criminal litigation with your former “employer”.


But what was the point?

I am  trapped and have no ethical, moral or psychic restrictions to protect me against unfair accusations  and forced to go until the end and by all means

KeyCAPTCHA вызвала милицейских или полиционеров?
KeyCAPTCHA вызвала милицейских или полиционеров?


KeyCAPTCHA Team published a few posts insisting that I had never worked in KeyCAPTCHA Team.


I have copies of dozens of KeyCAPTCHA’s posts backuped from:



telling the opposite, all deleted later at the request of KeyCAPTCHA Team  which I can Email on request of anybody interested in.


The only posts by KeyCAPTCHA Team confirming that I was dismissed from company and still remained undeleted are in http://forum.antichat.ru :



in the latter explaining the reasons of my dismissal and insisting, again with its usual lies,  that I was full paid out (I was not).

Thanks to the administration  of antichat.ru that it did not follow other resources and did not remove these posts at  the later request of KeyCAPTCHA.com!


The essence of conflict is that KeyCAPTCHA.com Team considers that as soon as it avoided its promise to formalize the written working contract with me, I was not hired and I was not employee and there is no need to pay either salary (for the last 2 months) nor dismissal fees according to Russian Federation Labor (or Employment) Law.


According to Russian Federation Labor Legislation, I am employee under protection of this law as soon as I started to work under conditions and verbal agreements of employment like, in my case:


    

  • I passed agreed 2-month probation period (Dec, 2010 – Jan, 2011),
    • 

  • routinely worked in office fulfilling employer’s instructions
    • 



which qualify me as employee and my working relations as employment under protection of Employment Law.


There are dozens of witnesses of my employment and thousands proves.


KeyCAPTCHA.com filed the LawSuit qualifying my inquiries about my salary and dismissal fees payout as extortion. initiating criminal investigation against me wanting to incarcerate me (for my inquiries  of payout of my work) up to 7 years. Cf.. for example, KeyCAPTCHA.com’s:



There Should Be A Special Prison For Stupid Staff from KeyCAPTCHA.com


By this, i.e. initiating police investigation, keycaptcha.com has put itself on its own initiative  under criminal investigation of its illegal business (economic) activities.


I am looking forward for the court being sure in victory of justice, common sense and law!

former employee of KeyCAPTCHA.com company

Why Twitter Supports Criminals?

Many times I reported to twitter support (opened a few tickets) that a dozen of  KeyCAPTCHA.com Team’s tweets from stolen from me @KeyCAPTCHA twitter account are lies and some of them are simply crimes:


The tweet “This person stole our twitter account @KeyCAPTCHA. And he started to extort money from our company” is lie



The tweet “When he started his threats we reported to the police immediately. The police helped us to get our twitter account back”  is lie








    

  •  When did I steal my Twitter account and How could I possibly  extort money by stealing any Twitter account? 
    • 



The Tweet of “He is under recognizance not to leave now”  is crime.


    

  • I am not and was never in my life under any recognizance oreven  informed about opening criminal case against me until now (Updated on August 11, 2011). Although, By law, it should have been done in maximum 10 days
    • 



The Tweet “The police are investigating it (all his other illegal actions (extortion of money, his threats and publishing slander)) now” is crime.


    

  • Until the end of investigation, the publishing of such “conclusions” is the crime under Russian and international laws.
    • 



The Tweet “Stop your lie. Your way can just aggravate your situation. See you in court” is intimidating threat publication of which is legally qualified as crime.


    

  • etc.
    • 



Instead of returning stolen from me @KeyCAPTCHA twitter account or or suspending it for reported by me abuses, twitter support permanently suspended (i.e. deleted)  my own (another) private account from which I reported (opened tickets) or tried to reply to such abuses and lies!


Except that I do not understand why Twitter obviously supports criminal activities, I do not understand why I am, as the author of my tweets, rejected the right at least to make copies of my content before blccking me from it without any warnings and expanations

I am a former “employee” of KeyCAPTCHA.com “company”, having worked for it since 11 Dec, 2010 till May, 2011.


I believe that users of KeyCAPTCHA.com external antispam service will be better informed if they know my story of relations with persons providing KeyCAPTCHA service

 But wait, there’s more
