Better Torrent also uses the Script that mines Monero and other cryptocurrencies without permission

Better Torrent joins The Pirate Bay and implements the famous Script that our team's processor uses to mine Monero and other cryptocurrencies without permission.

Content download pages have become very popular in recent years and have a problem that is tiring users, the amount of advertising they have. This leads users to try to block it with tools such as AdBlock and it is that the advertisements of loving girls near our residence, pills to enlarge members or elixirs for vigor, lose weight and others tire. The block makes these websites lose the only source of income they have and of course, they have opted for an inelegant method, integrating a miner for Monero, normally.

The Pirate Bay was the one who started this practice that has spread like weeds and has now reached the Best Torrent portal, which allows you to download different Torrent. This website has implemented the now famous CoinHive, the JavaScrip to mine cryptocurrencies with our team. These websites, despite the fact that a huge amount of money comes in with advertising, the greed of these people is greater than their ethics and now they have implemented this miner. Which can cause a complete blockage of the system, since when entering this website the processor starts working intensively in mining, reaching 100% load.

We have realized this when trying to access this website yesterday, when we got a warning from our antivirus. We have reviewed the code of the web and indeed the line of code appears <. This causes the web to use the processor to the maximum to mine, wearing down the processor for a user, something that is totally fraudulent. We must point out that this is among the 25 most visited websites in the country and among the 1.200 most visited in the world.

If you want to avoid this problem, the first thing we can do is integrate AdBlock into our browser, adding us as an exception, of course (thanks in advance). We can also install the NoCoin plug-in, available for Chrome and Firefox. We also have an alternative, such as GranTorrent, a website that I personally have been using for a long time, which is very good and is constantly updated. It has a lot of advertising, like all websites of this style, but at least it doesn't undermine and wear out our processor.
