Re-read my last sentence. Just because there was a banning of accounts doesnt mean botters are gone. It takes very little to be back up and running. There are 4-5 other programs that will produce the same result as this particular program that was targeted. However, most are just waiting for this particular program to be back up and undetectable again.
For some they will adapt and learn to write their own scripts understanding that they dont want to be reliant on auth server with a cool Ui. In turn making it much harder for blizzard to catch botters individually rather than a mass banning targeting a particular program.
By just playing around with profiles I learned alot by accident. Hell after a while(months) of playing around I found that I didnt even need isboxer anymore.

A more effective approach would be to address the game mechanics that encourage people to bot in the first place.

Zero had an interesting post about the ban wave:

His hypothesis was that this was a shot across the bow at the bot program because they make their money selling botting and blizzard didn't like when a court case last week did not go their way. Interesting read either way.

This is kindof just a weak rehash of what everyone already knows:

I don't buy that, you make it sounds as if there is just 1 big common reason why people bot. At the start of this expansion the most effective way to get full honor gear was to afk 4 hours in Ashran, yet battlegrounds were still filled with bots. It basically doesn't matter how much you reduce the grind, hell even completely remove it, people will always look for shortcuts in videogames, people will always try to get an edge in videogames. That has happened in every single videogame I've played.
Does it really matter that much that not all the bots will be gone? I mean if you do a random WsG and instead of 5 bots on your team you only have 1 or 2 now, then I'd argue that the overall playing experience has increased for the average player.
