This is old but pretty interesting, apparently King switched to something called Featurespace in November to detect and ban bots.

Featurespace's intelligent anti-fraud software products employ unique analysis algorithms to detect behavioural patterns, which is then personalised to profile each individual customer's pattern of activity and interaction. By analysing the human data patterns, Featurespace rapidly detects different types of activity, from normal to addictive behaviour to fraud.

They were always good at getting rid of bots but I guess this makes the detection process faster and more accurate. WW could definitely use something like this. Does SA have automatic detection or is it manual?
