Writing a Basic Keylogger in Python | Python for Cybersecurity Project 2

NOTE: This program is for education purposes only.
Project 2 of The Complete Python Project for Cybersecurity involved me taking an attempt in creating a keylogger within Python. Well, it's a basic keylogger which has it's limitations, but still an opportunity to build something malicious within Python. Here's what you need to know about the video...

Building a keylogger is rather easy. Now this totally depends on what type of keylogger you are creating and how sophisticated you desire to make it. The more sophisticated it is, the better chance you are to have accurate results.

This particular keylogger had it's limitations, as outlined in the last part of the video. The three key limitations to this keylogger included:
1) The amount of emails being received per set amount of time
2) The context of where the user is logging in (ex Facebook.com)
3) This is a 'local keylogger', meaning you have already have access to target victim before deploying this program

Great lessons learned here in Project 2. I would highly advise you look into creating a keylogger, even if it's basic, as this type of challenge will help you with reading documentation and deployment of the code.
