This is exactly the point I saw in a recent x post, that building anti-bot detection was incredibly difficult because some people exhibit bot like behavior.
Blizzard employee once told me anti-botting in WoW was extremely challenging due to the number of real people that acted identically to bots.
Every assumption was invalidated:
- unbelievable # of consecutive hours played
- consistently repetitive patterns of movement and clicks
- farming patterns that aren’t considered fun (“why would anyone do that”)
- solo, no external engagement
- goes on for months
The problem with botting is many humans ARE bots
