Default Datasheetarchive

Anybody notice the new annoyance at http://www.datasheetarchive.com/

If the datasheet is on their servers, they now require Captcha.

I have seen one excellent use for Captcha. New York Times ? issues from the
1800s ? scanned in but next to impossible to digitally convert to text.
Passed on phrases as captcha and when 2 or more humans agreed on what they
saw and texted in, then the converted text was updated.

They probably had too many people sucking out all they could. I have no
problem with Captcha if it enables them to survive.
