In online games, a host is the player who hosts the game, so other players must connect to their local IP address (not the internet one).

So it’s a form of cookies, the host, that can be hijacked from its use, which hackers do on databases.

Hi. For USB, there are two "parts": An "active" element (host) that supplies power to a "passive" element (USB key for example).
