Thank you for the information hotwheels!
As stated in the main thread; this plugin works using cookies which the vast majority of bots don't use or don't store therefore few bots will ever be blocked. To be sure, the script also explicitly looks for major bots and lets them through, just as if they were a user who had not yet met the threshold to be denied. From a spider?s perspective, they see what a guest would see on their first visits so the content is no different than what someone else has access to.
