Has anyone noticed that they've started to blur the last few digits of these security codes? Why is this necessary? I'm guessing the robo commenters have learned to enter non-blurred codes and this additional layer of security was needed to confound them once again. Or it could be that the one pictured above was an April Fool's joke? It does says "JK." What do you guys think?

Yeah. I notice that with some of the codes recently. Not only that, some are so warped and connected to each other that I can't quite see what the letter are supposed to be. They're starting to look more like artwork than letters now.
I haven't come across blurred-out letters or numbers yet. Doesn't really seem like an April Fools' joke though.
