Why would you turn off your green light that indicates you’re online?

I’m just wondering.

Because I might be signed in and have it opened in a tab, but not actually interacting with the site...

And the green dot might be saying I'm on when I'm not... and someone gets upset your on and not answering.

Or stalkers tracking you...

I don't know if that's true for this website, but it's happened on other sites, so I just turn it off.
