Allow bots to use their own account or user's account
The idea of blocking bots stems from abuse. Hovever, bots were anonymous at the time of policy changes.
New policy will require either bot use their own account with API key or software user's account with their login and password, or online authorization to query the site.
Use of accounts will make user responsible by exposing identity and blocking robotic (not human) use in case of abuse.

Chatbots already use Twitch accounts to operate! It is not possible to have a chatbot name and be present in a channel without an associated Twitch account.
