So this goes for things like murder, drink driving etc. as well then?

Well...

And it was more of a curiosity as for the auto-clicker. I just realised that with botting be gone for a while and the new HoM rewards, people would start doing that. Although, if I devise a way to do this easily...I totally won't even think about it.

It is not a violation of the ToS to be afk while your character isn't doing anything but standing there, or nobody would ever be allowed to take a bio break without getting banned. Common sense.

gotcha ^^ .

Unless you're MacGyver or some sort of engineer I'd be impressed if you could, 10,000 minutes is only 7 days. We're already one day down and no one has even mentioned that they've heard of something like this.

Way back in the early days of computers, I recall seeing a solenoid actuated device that sat over a keyboard to hit various keys. I don't recall what the exact purpose was, but at the time it was cheaper to do that than to build a proper interface. Nowadays, it's cheap to build devices to simulate keystrokes through USB etc., so there's not much call for physical devices.
Finding a device that could reliably click a mouse button would be more difficult, given the variation in shape and size of mice.
