! Mining

Code: Select all

||api.inwemo.com^$third-party
Is being blocked, i don't understand why as this is opt in only you are explicitly asked if you would like to use some cpu usage to pay for the server costs.

would it be possible this can be unblocked? or moved to a seperate list of some sort? i don't see this being suitable for EasyPrivacy

this list is selected by default in ublock origin and therefore blocks "opt in" mining

Using cpu cycles and sending to a third-party has privacy implications.

I agree completely in regards to coinhive etc but inwemo is purely opt in they designed it around that. There's no reason for it to be blocked as it doesn't run unless they want it to.

i mean obviously the "opt in message" runs regardless but thats all.

surely opt-in things aren't a privacy concern.
