We sent 1k bots to a GA4 site. It counted every one as a real visitor

Another AI-generated blog spam based on some data:

"Five rounds. 200 bot sessions each. 1,000 in total. Each round was harder to catch than the last."

"For Round 2, we left Puppeteer at its defaults. No stealth plugins. No UA spoofing."

"Both tools failed. And I think it's important to say that out loud."

"If it's true, the tracker quietly stops. No events. No requests. Nothing. " "the tracker quietly exits and sends nothing." "They pad your totals while GA4 quietly undercounts"

Nobody used to write like this, nowadays everyone writes like this. The AI tells are too easy to spot. This immediately lowered my brand perception of Clickport.
