Market board botting is a problem

Another possibility is investing in what researchers call continuous authentication. Though once again I very much doubt SE wants to devote any resources to it.

"Rather than tests, he favors something called “continuous authentication,” essentially observing the behavior of a user and looking for signs of automation. “A real human being doesn’t have very good control over their own motor functions, and so they can’t move the mouse the same way more than once over multiple interactions, even if they try really hard,” Ghosemajumder says. While a bot will interact with a page without moving a mouse, or by moving a mouse very precisely, human actions have “entropy” that is hard to spoof, Ghosemajumder says."

You can't deny the issue, as SE has been deleting accounts and RECENTLY started dropping automated bot driven accounts. This is Aug 20-27 of accounts breaking the EULA, ToS agreement when you "Click yes to agree". This isn't rocket science here, it's just business. Cheating is theft and I think some fail to see that. We NEED to report these bots as all they do is undermine our REAL hard work with their programs that just run and run. The people defending this are already suspicious for botting, and if I reported them would SE find anything? If no...then my work here is done.

Stop denying this isn't a problem and start taking action. In 3-4 years time this will be a HUGE cancer that will be impossible to cure.

a curious concept, but that will tend to target those who use tab and other keyboard shortcuts because of disability.... I hope not too many folks get hit by accusations... and I hope bot farmers don't start to use it as an excuse.
