What legal teeth I would advocate would be targeted to crawlers (a subset of bot) and not include your usage. It would mandate that Big Corp crawlers (for search indexing, AI data harvesting, etc.) be registered and identify themselves in their requests. This would allow serverside tools to efficiently reject them. Failure to comply would result in fines large enough to change behavior.
Now that I write that out, if such a thing were to come to pass, and it was well received, I do worry that congress would foam at the mouth to expand it to bots more generally, Microsoft-Uncertified-Devices, etc.
