> While a bot will interact with a page without moving a mouse, or by moving a mouse very precisely, human actions have “entropy” that is hard to spoof, Ghosemajumder says.
It's bad enough that systems working from this (highly dubious, IMO) premise will force us all to use the mouse even if we're used to the tab and arrow keys; much worse is that there's no workaround for people who _can't_ use the mouse and rely on switch control. It sounds like an accessibility nightmare.
So, I use Vimium to interact with my browser with solely my keyboard 90% of the time. I wonder how much this in any way correlates with the absolutely infuriating amount of captcha challenges I get one after the other.
