Does anyone know the actual answer to this? If the object is a few pixels over the line would Google consider that to be on both squares?

Idk but I always click it anyway. Sometimes it’s fine, sometimes it makes me do another.

I'd expect the answers other users have given for a particular captcha will be used to both train the algorithm, and also to decide what constitutes a correct answer.

So the right answer would be "the answer which a majority of humans would choose."

In my experience, correct means selecting squares that contain a significant portion of the thing. If its a tiny part then it's irrelevant.

Any tiny part, to me, is also part of the thing but that might then explain why I find those things so damn frustrating (I often get them "wrong")

All right, so now just the majority of the thing is the thing. Thanks
