RE: Steem supply is mining using your browser

in #steem7 years ago

and after re-checking your site I see a small footer that hides itself after a while.

so it is unethical or not? A simple "yes" or " no" will suffice.

Promoting my old tool was an afterthought

in order to obtain why?

Regardless of how well you announced your intention to hijack your users processor time for your own profit - I don't want to see this sort of crap installed on tools that a heap of steemians use daily.

I hijack my users processors for my own profit? Do we really have a discussion about that? What is the difference between "hijacking users processors" for testing a decentralized cryptocurrency with a great potential, and "hijacking users processors" with poorly coded sites or, even worse, with Google Analytics, Facebook Stats or Twitter SDKs, that are silently profiling users habits into data that is then sold to advertisers for billions?

Who is the bad guy here?

In the Steemit chat you also said to me that if you could un-steem your post you would do it, I assume you wrote that after you wrote this comment.

It's sad to see this divisive approach and accusations without proof, in an emerging ecosystem like Steemit.

It's very easy to destroy the reputation of a person with a few unfounded but plausible accusations.
