    Honeypots - ask a very easy question, but make it hidden on the website so that human users won’t see it and bots will answer it.

      So, how will you treat screen readers? Will they see that question? If you hide it from screen readers as well, what’s stopping bots from pretending to be screen readers when scraping your page? Hell, it’ll likely be easier on the bot devs to make them work that way and I assume there are already some out there that do.
