RE: Steem supply is mining using your browser

in #steem7 years ago

As it is very easy to do, very sneaky and as nobody will ever block javascript since it is too usefull, I guess this will happen more and more.
Just by surfing on the website, your browser downloads this javascript code and starts mining without you noticing it, isn't that paradise for the owner ?
This might be the next hidden source of income after ads.
I hope the "counter-part" is developped very fast i.e miner blocker as the one you speak of.

Sort:  

i think this is pretty much better than ads.
