Please GGG fix these f***** market bots

With the introduction of the offline market, the developers have done a good thing in my opinion if there weren't always the same idiots who take negative advantage of it.
I don't know if the developers realize how much bots distort the market. As soon as an item you're looking for appears, even if you're holding your mouse to buy it, within a second the item in question is gone, already snapped up by these damned bots that distort the entire market. Do you intend to do something about this?

I've come across threads in the subreddit talking about this and it seems to be 'easy' to do if you're techy enough, or know stuff related to networking/IT. No idea if POE1 has them market bots, but if it is so, then I don't think we'd be able to see a solution about it anytime soon.
