This does the same thing, but you can use any USB hardware as the entry/remove trigger. And you can script it to whatever you want.
But... that doesn't sell unneeded hardware.

usbkill triggers when a device is inserted. BusKill triggers when a device is removed. It's an important difference.
I actually didn't start BusKill to sell devices. It was originally a DIY project. The problem is that after I published the article describing how to make it, the one manufacturer of USB-A magnetic breakaways EOL'd their product and it sold-out (my & Hacker New's fault). It also wasn't for sale outside the US.
This campaign is a response to people who asked me how they could build their own USB-A cable with a magnetic breakaway. Before they couldn't. Now they can.
Of course, you can still build your own. We encourage it. All our designs are open-source.
