    I’m getting a lot of spam signups today. Over 200 since i updated the plugin this morning. Before it was working excellent. Nothing else changed on my site. I tried it out on my phone and i continuously get a check mark without having to verify images.

    Is there any way to disable that check mark so you always have to verify? or maybe is there another bug people notice that’s causing spam registrations to start up again?
