Super interesting! I think mouse jigglers are more than just "oh people don't want to work." I think it's a productivity aid to keep screens active when working out complexities on paper or for people whose jobs are so busy that they feel they need to keep their screen active so they can hear a chat notification while on their break. Companies who fire people over that tech are toxic and will find difficulty filling positions. I truly wish we could keep pushing the work schedule innovation that came with the pandemic to have more flexible hours that answer to work needed vs "I need to be here for 8 hours" which is part of the mouse jiggle problem.
