I honestly don't think SE is going to do anything about bots since they're generating revenue from them.
Think about how many bots there are farming dungeons, spiritbonding and spamming RMT messages, all worth an ARR account and monthly subscription.

Personally, I don't mind the spiritbonding bots, they do my dirty work for me and load up the market boards with lots of materia which drives the prices down.
