      Bot can automate views. It’s why Youtube keeps trying to move towards “engagement”. Comments, likes, etc, all require an account, which is an extra hurdle for bots.

        Then I will they just doing half the work. They can just get the site account walled for that goal, not a half patch work of blocking VPN users.
