Unfortunately the former is a headache and the later is an ever escalating 
Cold War that will inevitably end in Strong AI ruling the internet.

I'm the web admin of a local gaming con's site and forum, and after 9 
months of absolutely no bots getting through my QA+CAPTCHA plugins (phpBB) 
I was bombarded with 1000 bots in 4 days and hundreds of posts about 
free/cheap prescription drugs/contact lenses and pictures of boobies.

Sometimes I hate the internet...
