Comment:

 Captchas should be self-hosted. Or, at least, not hosted by an effing
 PRISM provider!

 STR: Post a comment containing a blacklisted word, such as busin3ss.

 Result: Trac decides you're a spammer and serves you a Google captcha.

 Raising priority/severity to try and get some attention.
