"I will do anything that will not literally get me into jail" is a pretty low bar. Most decent people try to do better than that - and that's the only reason society still exists, because there's not enough cops to put all bad people into jail and never will be.

Exactly - its why laws are written. So, if its enough of a problem, then there should be a law stopping/regulating it.

Are published TOSs enough to stop the owners of the bots?

TOS wouldn't be enough but laws wouldn't be enough either. We have thousands of pages of laws, and people violate them all the times, and very often with zero consequences.
