Warning: Amazon Dark doesn't use captchas and your password could be brute forced.

Amazon Dark will temporarily lock an account if a brute force attack is detected.

The captchas were removed temporarily following a DOS attack, they have now been replaced with a more DOS resistant solution. Captchas do not prevent a determined attacker from attempting to brute force an account, Two Factor Authentication is highly recommended.

A computer can beat a captcha more effectively than a real person 9/10, a captcha ain't stopping someone attempting to brute a password
