What “bootkit” means
WikipediaA rootkit is a collection of typically malicious computer software designed to enable access to a computer or to part of its software that would not otherwise be allowed. Rootkits often mask their presence or that of other software. The term rootkit is a compound of "root" and the word "kit". The term "rootkit" has negative connotations through its association with malware.

every network with a public tag surfaceFollow #bootkit straight to each platform’s own tag page. Where a platform publishes open data we measure it above; the rest lock their numbers behind paid APIs, so we link rather than guess.
Every number above is measured from a named public API at the shown fetch time. Nothing is estimated or extrapolated. Platforms that lock their data behind paid APIs are not shown. Agents: the same numbers, as JSON, at /api/hashtags/bootkit
