Мишоловка


Definition from oaau.info:
Мишоловка (Mousetrapping) – залежно від типу використовуваного вами браузера, на деяких сайтах проводиться підміна функцій кнопок «Назад» (Back) і «Закрити» (Close), що ускладнює вам вихід з даного сайту. Це приймання й називається «мишоловка», тому що, з одного боку, він робить вашу мишу неефективної, а з іншого сторони, ви втратили контроль над своїм браузером, начебто виявилися в пастці.

Example sentence(s):
  • На жаль, приклади тільки російською: Мышеловка (Mousetrapping) – в зависимости от типа используемого вами браузера, на некоторых сайтах производится подмена функций кнопок «Назад» (Back) и «Закрыть» (Close), осложняющая вам выход с данного сайта. Этот прием и называется «мышеловка», потому что, с одной стороны, он делает вашу мышь неэффективной, а с другой стороны, вы потеряли контроль над своим браузером, будто оказались в ловушке. - www.cripo.com.ua
