<p>Regarding the scope of condition (1) "starts automatically" as it relates to user interactions: for the animated information to start on a change of focus is considered automatic. For the animated information to start on pointer hover, scrolling the page, or on changing of the setting of a user interface component is not considered automatic.
</p>

<p>"Pause, Stop, Hide" applies when the web page initiates animation. In contrast, <a href="animation-from-interactions.html">2.3.3 Animation from Interactions</a> applies when a user’s interaction initiates animation.</p>

<p>Content that moves or auto-updates can be a barrier to anyone who has trouble reading
stationary text quickly as well as anyone who has trouble tracking moving objects.
