I've been using NoScript since forever and one gets used to it. Also, I've always wondered what the use is of tracking which words the mouse is hovering over.

I've been using NoScript since forever and one gets used to it.
Also, I've always wondered what the use is of tracking which words the mouse is hovering over. I mean who does that: hovering the mouse over words?
- dahart 9y ago> who does that: hovering the mouse over words? Lots of people, you’d be surprised. ;) Sometimes I catch myself unconsciously highlighting what I’m reading. But the mouse tracking is for detecting waffling potential button clicks and form fills too. It’s a bad proxy for attention, but it is a proxy that kinda works.
- pmoriarty 9y agoQuite often I'll move the mouse pointer out of the way of what I'm reading. So my mouse pointer will be "hovering", but not over anything I'm interested in at all.
