Simple Questions for Form Security

One of the most basic ways to make sure that robots don’t complete your form entry, is to use a question & answer field. You ask a very simple question, that should be obvious to any human reading it. Most forms use the “Is fire hot or cold?” question. I decided to pursue a few more options.

  • Is fire hot or cold?
  • Is water wet or dry?
  • Is ice cream sweet or sour?
  • Are apples a fruit or flower?
  • Are goats animals or minerals?
  • Are balls round or square?
  • Are lights bright or dark?
  • Is snow black or white?
  • Are blankets warm or cool?
