Filtering out bot traffic is easy enough with server logs. A self-hosted JavaScript analytics tool gives you more data, but Google Analytics filters out Firefox users too; contrary to ReCAPTCHA's apparent beliefs, Firefox users are mostly not bots.

Isn’t it the other way around? FF by default blocks GA.

It is. From the perspective of the person choosing an analytics system, it doesn't matter exactly what the reason is, though.
