After reCAPTCHA He served us a badge that we cannot escape on any page of a website, the row came Acism to do a little “cleaning” Among the websites and blogs that use this SPAM protection system for comments.
The mod implies Acism can be used for free on any blog or website with WordPress, but provided that this not to be done for commercial purposes. To be honest, I do not know which website could be for non-commercial purposes. After all, all that is content online is made with a commercial purpose, and the owner of a website would not have to support him if he did not sell him some services, products or advertisement. This fact is valid from the novice blogger to the big corporations that have online.

For contact forms, authentication sessions, creation sessions and other “form”-uri, existed until the beginning of the year, recaptcha (by Google). Service that has been limited to blocking spam on websites, only if one is displayed badge cu logo CAPTCHA and some links of “Terms and conditions”. Many website administrators have given up this protection system.
