I've actually noticed this in some websites the past ~two months. It's neat to have a captcha that finally doesn't need slowly clicking images to pass through.

Have you ever clicked a captcha and it's just checked itself off for you?

That's because your page use behaviour looked human enough it wasn't worth the robot test

It has happened on rare occasions. Most of the time, no. But I didn't think they had access to the mouse cursor trajectory.

Yes your browser tracks all of this, movement, hover, clicks etc. It's how pages are able to respond to various mouse gestures.
