If humans have a bot-like behavior, it’s okay to mark them as bot. If a human is only posting to promote products/astroturf, who cares if it’s misclassified, it doesn’t add anything to the discourse. IMHO, that’s good riddance.
And in my solution, at the end the instance owner takes action, it’s not like there is no human recourse.
The bot-like behaviour usually isn’t what they post but what they look like.
If it targets their account actions and not what they look like, that’s fine. But that’s not how most anti-bot systems work. Mostly they discriminate how you look before you do anything.
Congratulats! You just false-positive marked 10℅ of humans as bots.
This is a horrible idea.
