Kali Linux 2022.2 Release Adds an Amusing New Feature for the Hackers to Scare People
======
Kali Linux 2022.2 is the second update for this year with some fascinating additions.
![kali linux][1]
Kali Linux is not your usual Linux distribution. It is specially tailored for penetration testing and ethical hackers to learn/experiment.
We get interesting tools and feature additions with a new Kali Linux release. Let us take a look at the highlights for Kali Linux 2022.2.
### Kali Linux 2022.2: Whats New?
Kali Linux 2022.2 is an intriguing release introducing updated desktop environments, upgrading the Linux Kernel, adding new tools, and more improvements.
Not just limited to the usual refinements, you also get to see a new screensaver with many surprising elements.
#### The New Screensaver with Hollywood Nostalgia
Kali Linux has been featured in numerous TV Shows/Movies (like Mr. Robot) where they focus on hacking, considering it looks cool.
To take it up a notch, Kali Linux has added a new screensaver (that you can separately install), with surprising elements from Hollywood and some hacking scenes to scare away people.
They tease Matrixs Neo, and also add a beautiful Kali Linux logo in the screensaver.

The entire screensaver includes several elements, which is awesome. To install and launch it immediately, you can type in the following commands:
```
sudo apt -y install kali-screensaver
sudo apt -y install hollywood-activate
hollywood-activate
```
