Browser Ransomware
Browser Ransomware is a type of web-based ransomware that affects web browsers by using JavaScript popups, opening CPU- or GPU-heavy tabs or programs rapidly in a short time or other methods to slow down or cause lag on a user's device. These pages may use a special input or keyboard shortcut known only to the attacker who demands a ransom to remove the software. An
non-working example of such software is shown here: <html><head><script>new Image().src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BuBuStuff/BuBuStuff.github.io/main/trump.JPEG";new
