I did not disclose usage as well. It's hard to start a moral conversation. Do we ask permission from users to display ads ? No ? Why a miner then. My throttle was at 0.5. Will discontinue due to antivirus/internet security software labeling the site as hacked/infected. But even if it was close to 100%, I don't think notifying them is important. Does Adobe inform users that photoshop or premiere will work at 100% when doing difficult tasks ?

Hopefully a solution will be found.

So you are doing a difficult task that the user requested when you're cryptomining with his computer?
a web page or a software isn't there to do only what the user wants to do. Users don't want ads, maybe we should ask them ? Seriously ?
