Before people make assumptions I am not in no way pointing the fingers at pool owner or any pool owner in fact, as I am in no way to know.. But I am just curious after reading about this hi-jacking thing... Wouldnt it be very easy for a pool owner of a multipool to take 5% hashing power of peoples rigs Randomly , so that not all the people know its happening at once because its suspicious but a different random group off 300 people each day 5-10% from each rig, Plus  offcourse the pool fee of the total miners, thats alot of DOugh  ( it's crazy to know what people do for money, $ = drug = addiction.. etc $ has turned angels into devils, just sayin). Anyway How are we to know that it is happening, since its not happening to all the people the other 3000-4000 people will just say check your network, pings, rigs, settings, cgminer etc.... I find it very hard for an outsider who does not have any admin access to the stratum point servers to re-direct hashing power from inside > to > outside, not saying its not possible but I recon there are some very shifty pools out there that we need to be aware off. I think we all need figure out a way to find out if its happening for our own good and to look after one another, maybe there is a way and I don't know about it.... [ There should be a blanket process that we can use for all pools, not only the pools we mine, like I said i am not pointing fingers I am just trying to find out a way to look out for each other, without us the pools die]

WHats your thoughts? Any preventions to cover our own asses & pockets other than to solo mine?
