The "blurlock" command is used to lock the screen on a Linux system by applying a blur effect to the screen. It is typically used as a replacement for the "xlock" command, which is used to lock the screen by displaying a specific pattern or image.
When the "blurlock" command is executed, it captures a screenshot of the current screen, blurs the screenshot, and then displays it as the locked screen. This helps to protect the user's privacy by not displaying any sensitive information on the screen when it is locked.
The command can be executed in a terminal or assigned to a keyboard shortcut for convenience. When the screen is locked with "blurlock," the user will need to enter their password or provide the necessary authentication method to unlock the screen and regain access to the system.
