reCAPTCHA v3 just gives you a score, and you have to decide what to do with it. This means that you should never under any circumstances use reCAPTCHA v3 as a gate with no alternative—otherwise you will certainly be preventing real users from using the system with no recourse, which will regularly have at least theoretically dire legal consequences.

Also, I get the impression that reCAPTCHA v3 is waaaaay less smart than people think. At a small scale, it’s near trivial to tweak your browser so it’ll give scores at opposite ends of the spectrum.
