If I'am interested on knowing the owner idendity it's not because I'am a writer but because CoinTelegraph is known for their scams and they should be stopped , I personally don't think you should be selling this but you should share it with the community How much you are looking for this ?
Btw , I assume that the owner name is Dime and he is from Russia ?

I agree that the community should know who the master of puppets behind CT is, however I do understand how website's and traffic work as well and whoever would do the exposed story on CT ownership would have their numbers go through the roof and become the hottest news site in crypto overnight. If I could afford this, I would put up a forum and make it my first story but I can not afford anything like that right now. Good luck to whoever gets this info and makes it front page news.
Re: Embedable Javascript Bitcoin miner for your website
However, I do not currently have a reason to believe that Google would flag this as malware. Because, as best as I know, this does not meet the definition of Malware.... if so, wouldn't Google have flagged Bitcoin.org as a distributor of malware, for having miner downloads on it's homepage?
I ask to provoke questions, and discussion. I've been thinking about this all morning, and as best as I can rationalize, this is not different and an ad server. Even Flash ads can, and do, consume your CPU like their is no tomorrow.
There's a difference between these:
- Bitcoin.org Downloads - These are willing participants. Downloading your own client makes perfect sense. It's like participating with BOINC.
- Flash Ads - Those things are definitely a bane to all of us, especially the ones that have sound that is always 150% of other embeds. But, they are visible to the visitor, so they know they are there. They can also be disabled by the user. There's also the point of it may be "relevant" to the visitor.
- Embedded Miner - This can be deemed non-beneficial to the visitor and only a nuisance. It doesn't provide any extra content to them, but it does use up their CPU. Imagine if many sites implemented it, and a visitor had many tabs open with it running. The visitor wouldn't be gaining anything, but instead wonder they their computer is screaming at them.
I'm definitely interested in the concept, but it would need some extra work to be a little less intrusive. I'm watching the discussion to see how it goes.
Re: Embedable Javascript Bitcoin miner for your website
I am a little confused on what the concern is. AFAIK, Google, et al, do not execute Javascript when they visit your website. Am I missing something?
When Google scans a page, it looks at all links, embeds, etc. It will see the script address for the embed. After they decide that the script is taking up too much CPU (user reports and whatnot), they will flag it as malware. Any page that embeds the script will also be flagged as malware. This can lead to things like pre-visit warning dialogs within the browser.
Hiding the script, along with any related content, from bots such as Google is the only way to prevent a page from being flagged.
