Sounds like we need better bots. Ones that don't move from point to point in a straight line, ones that read a description at between 1.6 and 4.8 pages per second, ones that stay on a landing page for 1.8+d100 seconds. Why aren't people using better bots?

Yes, that's all sarcasm. But expect an increase in more human acting bots to be the solution offered by someone and not less bots. Because someone wants to keep making money off fake traffic.
