Ad blocking is interfering with the actions of a remote server, for example by blocking the expected transmission of tracking and analytic data.

Except the bot is causing things to be written to the server. The ad blocker is only blocking requests from happening (and those requests occur on the client side, in JavaScript). It's not blocking the transmission from the server's end at all, it's only stopping an event from happening locally.
