In light of the recent EVE News articles, this dev blog is pretty meh. Team "We're Mildly Annoyed" is basically as effective as Pakistan against the Taliban.
A very apt analogy, given that many of the Pakistanis, including som in the intelligence services and other government branches, and probably also the military, sympathize with the Taleban.

Bots read directly from the client's memory. Adding such a delay only makes it more difficult for legitimate users to fight back against the RMT menace.
If so, the obvious solution is for the server to generate fictitious player character at random, entering various systems in 0.0 (and low-sec too, if necessary). That'd make the bots paranoid!

Step Five
Ban the crap out of them bot acounts and repeat from Step One.
No, no, NO!
That's wrong.
The correct step 5 is follow the freakin' ISK, then once the money trail has been mapped out, get out the biggest banhammer you have.
Banning single accounts won't accomplish anything at all. CCP has to follow the money trail and find the guilty players, rather than merely banning the guilty characters.

#5 Chribba is not CCP. And if bots mine all the minerals for the supercap, and the alliance owning the bots builds it, it never changes hands.
You completely misunderstood the #5 part of his post.

I've reported several highsec mining bots (you know, 23/7 online ones). Still there and digging, so reporting bots is useless! I guess their logs show nothing. Devblog is useless and shows nothing too.
Could it be the case that CCP does not immediately ban bots, because CCP wants to follow the money trail, so that they can identify and ban the main characters of those who also run bot accounts?
Personally, I'm disinclined to give CCP that much credit, but it could be the reason why those bot you reported haven't been banned yet.
