Story


As a website owner, I want to ensure that my analytics are accurate and not skewed by non-human visitors

Background


Typically, without any filters, Google Analytics will include several types of 'spam'. This can be ghost referrals, personal visits, and other sources of non-human traffic

Acceptance Criteria


That the following items are filtered out in a new view (keeping a completely unfiltered view in accordance with GA best practices)
