Good question. It depends on the service terms and intent. Agents will increasingly break these captchas, so exposing that ability will only delay the next time it fails. This capability is already built into Gemini Pro, for example, but it hasn't been advertised heavily yet.
This is not a technology anyone developed, but an emergent capability of the models and our system to prove how well it works. Courts will still have to determine intent and harm based on the user of the product.

I have been pleasantly surprised by NopeCHA[1] which is free for 100 captchas a day. I often see it valiantly solving several in a row while I am busy filling out a form. Though I do get a slightly more shady vibe off their paid plans, given the sheer scale.
I know we've had some victories recently for web scraping like the hiQ case, but I don't remember it it covered bypassing "technical protections" in a similar way that copyright laws are applied.
(Serious question, since I'm used to those sort of recaptcha-solving services only being advertised on far seedier websites, so I'm surprised it highlighted on the homepage. For the record I am against that interpretation of CFAA but personally wouldn't want to be the test case)
