Testing is an intriguing idea. However there may be genuine folks who comment who may be discouraged in the time involvement in responding. Yes it would reduce the spam and trolls however it may ALSO reduce the positive comments from which one may grow. A person may have more aggravated folks who are on their lunch break taking their time to comment on your post instead of having that extra cup of coffee and may leave a frustrating unproductive comment where it may have been a positive response. Perhaps someone who 'Appears' after say three posts to be a scammer would have to be put through that question process to qualify to comment or earn their way back through more posts. When they have earned their way back after 3 -4 posts they would not have to answer any quiz questions on future posts until they start scamming again. Sad to hear about Google and vietnam. I would fear that may come to America being test marketed in vietnam. Thanks for sharing. - Troy

Yeah, but many sites allow anonymous comments, or people can make up any email to use to comment. But being penalized for bad behavior is better than making everything go through extra crappy steps :P
They can track comment to the IP address or computer where it came from. Thanks - Troy
