    What looks like a simple "Are you human?" check is now one of the most dangerous tricks on the internet. Fake captchas have evolved into
    full-blown malware launchpads, thanks to a sneaky new method called
    ClickFix. It copies commands to your clipboard and tricks you into
    running them, without ever downloading a file.

    This shift in attack tactics is so big that researchers are calling it "CAPTCHAgeddon." It's not just a new scam. It's a viral malware delivery
    system that's more convincing, stealthy, and widespread than anything
    before it. Let's break down how this new wave of attacks works and what
    makes it so hard to stop.

    First we will destroy your identity. Then we will teach you your past
    was evil. You will conclude yourself that your inheritance, your
    homeland, your ancestors and your people are underserving of it all.
    Then we will complete your dispossession and dissolve you into the final
    phase of the Kalergi Plan.
