A new study reveals that cryptocurrency miners are turning to porn sites to exploit users’ computing power when they’re online. A Bejing-based company called 360NetLab has analyzed internet traffic patterns. The company has concluded that, while small in terms of web traffic, sites offering adult content make up the vast majority of sites containing web mining code on their homepages.
These cryptocurrency mining programs usually download without permission when you click on the site. They run in the background, using the computing power of your CPU to create new cryptocurrency. This can significantly diminish the performance of your computer while you’re online.
