What's the implication here? Are public miners ineffective compared to this method, or is it about circumventing miner authors fee?

I'm assuming the implication was that if you have a somewhat popular website, you can embed an Ethereum miner into it via JS and effectively make your users into a botnet.
Is that miner GPU accelerated? I wasn't able to find out.
