Pirate Bay Now Mines Cryptocurrency in Your Browser Without Consent

Pirate Bay Now Mines Cryptocurrency in Your Browser Without Consent A few weeks ago, The Pirate Bay was in the news for its test-drive of a new revenue model–cryptocurrency mining in your browser. At the time, the site only implemented the mining on its main page and search results; individual torrent links were not affected. Now, TPB has turned the capability back on, and plans to leave it on for the foreseeable future. Torrentfreak   reports the miner appears to be throttled, so it won’t peg your CPU to 100 percent load. TPB appears to be working with CoinHive, based on the number of requests made to that domain. We decided to see which browsers are and aren’t affected by the mining script, with some interesting results. We can confirm that using an application like uBlock Origin or presumably Adblock Plus will block the script on any browser. Two browsers, Vivaldi and Edge, did nothing unusual when visiting ThePirateBay.org. Firefox, on the other hand, immediately...

The new Audible-integrated e-reader is fitted with Amazon’s largest hi-res Paperwhite display and is, finally, waterproof Amazon may well be focusing on the  smart home  and Alexa integration with its hardware, but by releasing a new Kindle today it is also, for now at least, committed to upgrading a device that is coming up to being 10 years old. The new Kindle Oasis, comes with Amazon’s largest, highest-resolution Paperwhite display, and is also the first waterproof Kindle, which, considering many Kindle faithful use the device on holiday by swimming pools and on seashores, has been a long time coming. This new iteration of the the e-reader has a fast-charging battery entirely built-in, rather than split between the handset and the cover (as was the case with the previous  Oasis ), that can fully recharge in less than two hours. That battery will supposedly power the 7-inch, 300ppi display for up to six weeks. Amazon also claims the page turning speed has been b...

Google's latest home made mobile promises a slick stock Android experience and brilliant photography. But the cheaper Galaxy S8 and the pricer iPhone 8 are similarly compelling. Why should I care about the Google Pixel 2? Since the Android operating system launched in 2008, Google has offered it out to other smartphone vendors for free. There are huge range of Android smartphones on the market, covering everything from cheap and cheerful phones like the Wileyfox Swift 2 X, through to high-end handsets like the  Galaxy Note 8 . Unfortunately, most smartphone makers modify Android to differentiate their devices from competitors'. The result is a confusing array of user experiences and slow software and security updates (a problem exacerbated by carrier networks).
