Man-in-the-middle techniques are a real plague in our world of computers and software.  As the name suggests, this type of attack allows hackers to intercept data being transmitted by users which can range from usernames and passwords to financial information. Microsoft has announced their plan to crack down on these techniques and effectively reduce the number of adware in circulation.  This is good news for Bitcoin users as well, meaning their funds will be safe from harm.
