Developer @ Oxylabs
From the very beginning of his software development career, Tadas focused on web data extraction. In fact, his very first project was a web scraper. As a web scraping engineer, Tadas is product-minded and, one could say, obsessed with making software as performant as possible. He practices productivity tracking and even dedicates his pastime to crafting an open-source ML-powered data parsing library.
Whenever you visit a website, the owner can track your clicks, keystrokes, and mouse movements. This significantly complicates web scraping as the target can easily understand if the visitor is a bot or a real user. In this session, delve into the sophisticated world of mouse movement algorithms and their application in web scraping. Learn how to mimic human-like mouse movements to avoid detection and enhance your scraping techniques.
During the presentation, Tadas will explore:
Different mouse movement algorithms;
How to find if a website tracks mouse movements;
Mouse movement algorithms examples with live demo + open source code.
Coming from different industries and backgrounds but united in common passion and aspirations, these web scraping experts will share their experiences and answer your questions.
