Why pay for something you won't be using all the time? Why not just pay for it only when you're using it? Oh--well yeah, you'll have to buy it first--but then you'll only have to pay to use it when you want to use it, and only when you want to use it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

What a fucking breakthrough

Ohhh, you get to pay based on the meters of mouse movement you do. Usage based billing, perfect.

Ooh, then your mouse can stop working when you run out of meters and then you have to buy more to top it up! Excellent.

Mouse usage 🤝 paying for distance used
