Incorrect, heartbleed caused leaks from the servers affected. This is not even vulnerability it's just a stupid design decision that someone can MitM.

That's actually a great name for it or something along the lines of killswitch. Maybe AntKill or MinerRaid.

Yes, and the "bleed" in "heartbleed" comes from the fact that data was being leaked (bleeding out).
