The recent change by @Stillhateschnitzel has introduced factual inaccuracies.
Because I have a (well-defined) COI (I'm the founder of the BusKill project), I'm going to leave this in Talk, rather than just undo the edit.
While I appreciate the attempt to make the intro more simple and clear to readers, this statement is not correct
BusKill is a project that makes a physical cord intended to lock a computer when the user walks away.
BusKill is, in-fact, *not* designed to lock the computer when the user walks away. It's expected that the user will disarm BusKill and manually lock their computer when they walk away.
BusKill is, in-fact, designed to lock, shutdown, or wipe the encryption keys when a person who is *not* the user *steals* the laptop *from* the user. This, I think, is a critically important difference.
