    I feel like there should be a third box with Wall Street raider types, for scrapers that use Selenium browser automation.

    I don’t think it’s entirely unblockable - adsense seems to know to only serve unmonetized PSA ads - but I think it’s very difficult to discriminate between “this is a real browser controlled by an end user” and “this is a real browser being controlled by automated test software”.
