What is the point / function / utility / novelty of this? And where does obfuscation come in to it?
Point / function is it loads a website every x seconds. The obfuscation comes as it's utility, as it loads in an iframe in your browser you have the full pull of the site inc js etc, which if you wanted to could be used to semi obfuscate your surfing. i.e. creates a bigger haystack to find the needles of your surfing.
