Jiggle That Mouse!

It seemingly had to happen. Many more people currently spend at least part of their time, remote working from home. This generally increases productivity and job appreciation. Some bosses have, unremarkably, wanted to monitor whether their workers are actually active. A device called a 'mouse mover', with a spinning disc, has been developed, enabling remote workers to take time out, to watch a soccer match on TV etc, without being classed as idle (https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2023/mar/05/idle-no-more-how-automatic-mouse-jigglers-are-taking-on-nosy-bosses).
