Finally a convincing use case for the blockchain: bulletproof hosting.
Security researchers are sounding the alarm on a new and inexpensive method for distributing malware that hacking groups are increasingly employing.

Is there a generic term for "mouse jigglers" and apps like Caffeine?
Apps that keep systems from locking, sleeping, or that simulate normal activity.
Keepalives? Mouse movers? There has to be something more succinct. 🤔
