Yes. of course, bot's are everywhere. There are bots which search for dofollow links and then there are bots which simply hit at everything. Sites which use bots usually dont bother about their SEO rank most of those are what you call chum and burn sites. Even bottling has limitations. You need a good VPS and then you need lots of IP addresses to use.
Today comment spamming is not easy unless the website owner is a totally newbie. When it comes to Wordpress you get Akismet Anti-Spam along with it. This plugin take care of almost all the spam comments. Some use t3rd party comment plugins like Disqus. Personally I prefer Akismet since it hasn't failed me yet. Akismet does have regularly updated list of Bot IP's so the moment bot lands on spam page it knows. You can use Facebook comment system too. But I don't think you can remove unwanted comments in that.
When it comes to Blogger blogs it a must to enable Moderate Comments option. That way if someone comments it wont be visible till you approve it. It's an on going, nonstop battle like many other things in this field. Spammers try to find to new ways to by pass these and others try to plug any spammer loopholes they find.
But you can do the commenting in an intelligent way so the blog would benifit from it and also you would get a backlink. This by manually doing the comments making them meaning full and engaging rather than adding something generic.
