RE: Your Computer May Have Been Used For Mining Cryptocurrency Without Your Knowledge. 500 Million Computers Have Been Affected.

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago (edited)

I would point out the the JSECoin script notifies the visitor about the mining and allows them to opt out. I don't see anything unethical about that. This is just merely an alternative to advertising (and a less disruptive one if you ask me). It also only mines for the time you are actually on the page. Your computer is not infected.

If the visitor is being informed, I suppose then it is not a problem. By the way, that was a very old post of mine. Here is my latest post.
