### Magic USB (2014)

A security experiment I made when I was 17.
It shuts down the PC when a USB flash drive is inserted.
Unfortunately, it does not shut down the PC when an Xbox controller is inserted,
which means it can be bypassed by anyone who owns an Xbox controller.

This project is preserved for historical purposes only.
Do not use it for real security.
