Malware and other applications may install persistent keyboard "event taps" to intercept your keystrokes. ReiKey can scan, detect, and monitor for such taps!
ReiKey does not find or detect keyboard event taps that are monitoring only a keydown event or only a keyup event. Based on the bitwise logic, it only finds taps that are monitoring at least both of these settings.
I know a key press is technically made up of both a keydown event and a keyup event, but malware could gather similar data by only monitoring keyup events and ReiKey would not detect it. I think ReiKey should still present these taps to the user, even if it would be a crappy keylogger.

The bitmask is defined here: https://github.com/objective-see/ReiKey/blob/master/shared/EventTaps.m#L38
And the bitmask is used here: https://github.com/objective-see/ReiKey/blob/master/shared/EventTaps.m#L83
I took a shot at changing the logic.
