I’m getting really tired of “verify you’re not a bot” checks everywhere.

I understand these checks help prevent bots, but they seem to appear on so many websites now. Does anyone else find them frustrating?

No, unless they're set up poorly. I've visited sites that ran the same check on every single webpage, and I've visited sites that do unnecessarily difficult and lengthy jobs to verify, and they always lose my traffic for it. Not that they care, considering I've used adblockers religiously since losing a hard drive to a malvertisement in 2011.
