While I doubt CCP has 100% success rate, I do feel quite confident in their ability to distinguish bots from players.

I’ve also strongly suspect that there is a huge overlap between [people complaining about overzelous GM action](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/game-master-steal-from-you-to-fund-the-own-game/222623) and the cheaters of Eve. So, idk… maybe stop cheating and you won’t get banned.
