Origin

Rust is named after the resulting phenomenon of the oxidation of iron. The word 'rust' finds its etymological origins in the Proto-Germanic word rusta, which translates to "redness." The word is closely related to the term "ruddy," which also refers to a reddish coloring in an object.

gollark: What do you mean?
gollark: If your kiosks are in trusted environments you can just stick whatever code you want on them and nobody can look at them *anyway*, but we're assuming they're not. I think.
gollark: Okay, yes, if you don't control the kiosk's code or hardware all you can do is snoop on network traffic.
