REMINDER: DISABLE JAVASCRIPT WHEN APPROPRIATE

Now they're using JS to almost literally look over over your shoulder.

Nice proof.

The only way to kill the ad/datamining industry is to disable JS or use Tor.

It's simply unethical just has adding ads.

Ok look you are executing code (probably non-free one btw) that you didn't ask for on a publicly accessible website who doesn't ask you if you want to datamine coins for them.

It's still not ethical.

The web didn't need advertisement in the first place to exist.

People are willing to invest their time in things for free, but when it comes to investing money, it's something else. Nobody wants to run websites at a loss, and depending on how big your website is, said loss may be huge, every single month. And that's just the hosting.

The best idea would be offering Premium subscription services for coin mining hours. Want that Brazzers membership? Click here and keep this page open for six hours. Congratulations, you can now watch your meme porn. Wanna play your shitty WoW? Enable the miner for four hours for two hours of subscription fucking Blizzard jews.


 No.827656>>827707

>>827651

While nobody wants to run at a loss, some people find the value of having a website is worth more than what they have to pay to have it hosted.

For example, I have a site related to one of my obscure hobbies. On the site are some resources that some people in the community use. I find value in having a platform where I can put my content and being to share it with other people.


 No.827657>>827780

There's literally nothing wrong with ads you subhuman retards. It's just a picture on the side of the page.

A bitcoin miner on the other hand will eat up your CPU and cripple your computer, and each website that has one makes it worse and worse.


 No.827707

>>827656

I could consider running a service for maybe $20 a month, but any non obscure website costs way more than that. $100-$200 month is a very possible cost for a sub-8chan website, and even if you could pay for it with most jobs, it's a considerable expense.

You're absolutely right. In the same way that there's nothing wrong with having an account on a website, it's not the adverts in themselves that are the problem, and it's disingenuous when content blockers call themselves "adblockers", because it opens themselves up to the fabricated ethical dilemma that lobbyists fabricated that you're stealing money. It also implies that adverts on the Internet only exist in one form and not in sponsorship or procured, first-party adverts, and they're tricking people into thinking that normal people don't reserve the right to control the very code that's executed on THEIR OWN computers. The debate is just absolutely disgusting, because it's people on two sides arguing over their outlook on a premise that is inherently wrong.


 No.827846>>828704

>>827247

Except for the fact that, right now, they are only used in exploits on websites you already pay for. Imagine paying for access to Showtime and then having to mine Monero while watching HD video because their tech team is too stupid to vet the JS of their thousands of analytics providers. Even excepting exploits, the websites already adopting this just stick it in the background and don't even mention it.

And forcing browsers to mine will fucking destroy phones. I know this isn't a problem for /tech/, but I'm saying that it's not feasible for funding a normalfag website.

If you want to embed CoinHive in your website to take the place of ads, it should:

>be voluntary

>afford some type of privilege for participating, even if it's just disabling ads

>allow you to donate crypto to avoid it altogether

There is potential, especially given how pernicious advertising can be for user privacy, but I don't trust the average website to use it in a more responsible manner than how they're using ads now.

Oh airgap, you mean something like google voice command that is constantly listenning? If a high pitched noise arrives, then it noises the answer back?

Like silverpush, just coincidence that every android has a "ant" app installed ,probably same ant as in the snowden papers.

Can't find it now. it is on another machine, but when searching for chrome permission speech permission israeli or something like that, there should be script that abuses the mic permissions in chrome.
