    Listening for these hotkeys is kind of pointless. The whole idea of pressing Ctrl + Alt + Del is that, while you can detect the keys being pressed, you cannot prevent Windows to di…

    Don't cry man, at least I feel quite confident that these backdoors are efficiently NOBUS

    I get your point, but I meant that the open source community works because it can leverage on the work from each other. The achievements would be multiplied by the potential reach.…
