Mouse/scroll tracking

I think I read somewhere that eBay and PayPal do this...

Do you think it's possible to link accounts this way? Surely there are tens of thousands which must use the same method of scrolling etc?

No way that ebay and paypal do this. Dont worry about your mouse movements...

Ah. Thanks for your help.

It is called entropy, and is very different even if the same user does it. And it is very hard to implement as well. So, it is not used.

Ok. Don't know where I read this then.

Thanks for your help.

Ebay can track you via the following methods:
1. When you flush your toilet
2. Every time you sneeze
3. When you Open/Close your Home Door
4. Eating at a Fast Food establishment
5. Watching the BBC
6. Talking to your Neighbors
And many more.

@OP, don't worry about this - no tracking of mouse (or any other house "pets")
