What do you think about Google's WEI (Web Environment Integrity) initiative?

As this thread discusses bots, I was perm-banned from a very popular forum unexpectedly, all I did was submit a lengthy on-topic reply to a popular thread.

reason for ban: Bot, type: Permanent, Restoration: Never.

and I'm "what on earth?" Anyone know what could have prompted that ban?
You might have been banned by a bot that suspected you're a bot. It's bots all the way down. Pretty soon there will be no humans left on the Web. It'll be all bots talking to each other.
