Bottler authors wanted channels to "opt out" by putting strings in the topic, but most channels instead implemented scripts that detect and kickban Bottlers.
it was easier for botler since it send requests to all users of the channel. Detecting bits that simply sit there and monitor all data might be harder. Although this might be a violation of the TOS on some networks.
