I think this is something that needs to be addressed.
Is tlopo running bitcoin mining secretly on our computers? Would it be possible? Absolutely. Is tlopo doing it?
Who knows. We can't ignore this problem any longer. Bitcoin hijacking has been going on for a decade. However, with todays ultra stupid insane valuation pricing and new commodity exchange selling contracts in bitcoin that are based on cloud vapor and no one knows who owns bitcoins except a few very rich individuals from before bitcoin went stupid. Due to this development, there is a large rash of fresh malware being used to mine, including when you go to a website, and the software runs in the background while you're visiting and presumably nothing gets loaded to your computer. You would only experience slow navigating.
IF tlopo asks whether we would allow them to run mining while we are online, should we? How do we know Blizzard isn't running mining as well? Or any online for that matter. Wouldn't it be sickening that this crazy bitcoin bubble bursts and it is revealed all online game companies have been running mining programs in their cheat protection codes. After all, we HAVE to run that program to play any online companies games. ALL of them. And this is exactly what valve was doing for a short period UNTIL they got caught. They made it sound like a rogue employee, but the lawsuit proved otherwise. . Didn't tlopo do something with cheat programs lately? Clearly, we all need cheat protection programs for games, but we sure don't need those same programs cheating on us.
It sure would make me mad to find out like since 2010 that I could have been playing at 60 fps or better all the time on respectable low bandwidth instead of the 7 fps I was getting most of the time even with a good connection, while whatever game I was on was running all my resources on a hidden service.
If you've read this far and think I'm a pirate suffering with scurvy, keep reading and then read the few links I supplied. There were many many more.
And if my pirate and profile suddenly disappears for any reason after this post, it wasn't me, but it would be clear I hit a nerve. I make it clear right now, I am not accusing tlopo of bitcoin mining. But if all parties agree, could this be a way for Tlopo to get needed funds. Would Disney allow it. I wouldn't be surprised if Disney is mining with their sites. Just recently showtime and another information site were downloading mining malware without them knowing it. That's another issue, is tlopo hardened against this kind of threat?
I would expect so.
But know this, bitcoin mining hackers are out in force and people better be finding ways to check their systems.
Specially people who leave all their stuff on all night continuously. I don't, never have.
And bitcoin mining is being revealed more and more openly as a machine killer, sometimes burning normal systems up in weeks. I can run the Heaven benchmark burn in program for a week on my system without a hiccup or high temp warning. Mining could kill it in 3 days.
Is this for real scary stuff? You bet your pirates butt it is.
Don't take my word for it. I think this is going to get worst before it gets better.
Bitcoin mining has been going on since 2009 and Online gaming companies have been caught using your computer to mine bitcoins without your knowledge while melting your gpu and you would not know why.
Esea back in 2013 was using mining software in their mandatory cheat code program that everyone had to download or could not play.
