They won't.
Illegalising it does at least mean that when egregious cases are found, they can be prosecuted, I guess.
However common discussion on bots is predicated on the public's false impression of what bots are and what they look like, especially on social media. Twitter has many thousands of sockpuppet bot-driven accounts. People think they can spot them because some of them are obvious; like they have profiles which blatantly give away that they're false at even a cursory examination. But that's a smokescreen for the countless bots/sockpuppets that, for all intents and purposes, you'd think were real.
I had an experience a few years ago where I got to "see behind the curtain" on this. There was a trend a while back where you could "buy followers" on Twitter; like you'd pay a service and over the next few weeks, you'd pick up followers every day. Obviously all of these were fake. I found out about it when a friend did it to me for a prank, and I noticed I started getting 50 new followers every day; by day-3 it was obvious something was up, but the point was that the accounts were totally "clean"; they all looked like genuine people, proper usernames, good pictures, interesting bios. They had hobbies, interests, political opinions. They supported sports teams, had favourite videogames, posted random stuff about their "day".
This experience totally changed my perspective when you see an argument in a divisive political hashtag on Twitter (for instance, in 2021, vax/antivax). I rarely engage anymore because I honestly wonder how many of those tweets are instigated by trollfarms in eastern Europe in the pay of political parties.
