Sure, I was just curious and looked it up, that’s the first link I saw. I guess the question is — is it better to theoretically annoy real users who aren’t using JS (and how many are there) or is it better to frustrate and annoy lazy spammers (and how many are there?). On my own sites I really rarely get non-spam email. I’d be fine making a random 10-45 second timer on my contact forms doing this, no one needs to contact me in under 10 seconds on my websites.
