FT8 Bots what exactly are they

Doesn't it come down to INTENT ?  

The intent to deceive perhaps ?  

About locations.. or other details..

The opposite picture is that if the location (or other) detail is known (eg by grid square), then it simply becomes another option to work someone in a less-ham-populated area...  And then does it really matter if the actual operator is 3 or 30 metres away, or 3, 30, 300 or 3000KM away ??

If the intent is to deceive to gain an advantage, qualify for an award, maybe even just a QSL, then that might be a different story. 

Play fair and all are happy.

INTENT...
