Description: how it works the script takes a screenshot, then datamoshes it. optionally overlays an image (one for each display) then uses that image as the background for the lockscreen.
security this lockscreen has the potential for information leakage, since it uses a screenshot of your active screen. i made this for fun and personal use, please take care and weigh your opsec and personal threat model before deciding to use this.
an example workaround would be setting up your screen very nicely w/o any secret info in it and taking a screenshot. then replace line #9 in the script (scrot /tmp/lock.png) with a command to {move,copy} your pre-setup screenshot into place (e.g. cp ~/lib/img/lock.png /tmp/lock.png) then let the script randomly glitch that image out everytime.

* yay is an aur helper that wraps pacman.
customize if called alone, the script will take a screenshot and glitch it. but you can optionally pass an environment variable named GLITCHICON to the app and it will center that image on each display and overlay it on the glitched image.
