I understand that Akamai’s new bot manager does more than just grab telemetry data.

It’s more like a captcha for browsers, i.e. if the user is using a real browser it should behave in a way that pre-scripted bots can’t easy replicate. The payload is auto-injected by Akamai so the expected behaviour can be altered in a non-deterministic way.

Just record couple hours of phone usage IMU data and then feed it to them with random segments added together and they won't by any wiser. Or just rock the phone in it's cradle. There are companies with robots tapping the screens, adding some rocking movements is not going to be that hard.
