The Push to Ban Ransom Payments Is Gaining Momentum
Ransomware costs victims an estimated $30 billion per year and has gotten so out of control that global support for banning payments is gaining momentum.

Package description
The stack-generator npm package is a utility for generating stack traces for JavaScript errors. It provides a way to capture, manipulate, and analyze stack traces, which can be useful for debugging and error handling in JavaScript applications.
Generating stack traces
This feature allows developers to generate a stack trace at any point in their code. The `backtrace` method captures the current call stack and returns it as an array of stack frames.
const StackGenerator = require('stack-generator');
const stack = StackGenerator.backtrace();
console.log(stack);
Filtering stack traces
This feature enables developers to filter out specific stack frames from the stack trace based on certain conditions, such as excluding frames from specific functions.
const StackGenerator = require('stack-generator');
const stack = StackGenerator.backtrace();
const filteredStack = stack.filter(frame => frame.functionName !== 'FunctionToIgnore');
console.log(filteredStack);
This package also parses JavaScript stack traces. It extracts structured information from stack traces generated by different browsers, providing a more cross-browser compatible solution compared to stack-generator.
Stacktrace-js offers similar functionalities by providing stack traces but goes further by allowing better cross-browser stack trace collection and source mapping, which can be more useful for debugging applications that need to support multiple browsers.
