Crypto-mining botnets have returned

Windows 10 is cryptomining since the beginning. Nobody noticed?
 
:crylaugh:

They should use you in the X-Files show.
Provision for cryptomining is included in the Windows 10 licence agreement. You don't need X-Files to prove anything. Constant hard drive trashing is a sufficient evidence.
 
If Microsoft have figured out a way to use computers to mine, while utilising zero resources, I want in!

What a joke.
It doesn't use zero resources, it is a problem. They attempt to hide CPU/GPU usage (with a success to such fools like yourself) as it is controlled by system services, but they can't hide hard drive LED activity, as it is in the hardware. They can't hide disk activity, Понимаю? :)

Ok then, since you've made the claim directly....

Provide the section of that license agreement that allows them to do this.

The idiocy is shocking. Have you mined before? Have you seen what it does to your cpu/gpu utilization?
Have you tried to do anything on a pc that is mining?
Take off the tinfoil hat and replace it with a plastic bag, tighten around the neck.

Why me, don't be a lazy boy, do your own work. This ridicolous licence agreement had been widely commented with introduction of Windows 10, I don't need to bring it up again.

Actually you do, as you are the one making wild claims. Else sharrup wif wild claims.

Yes you do.

You made the claim, therefore post the section of the agreement here.

The rest of us know you're smoking crack, but we want to see this section of the agreement that you think confirms your bollocks little belief.

I wish they would share their miner. In addition to mining, it also makes your PC faster and more responsive.
Imagine if you can package it and sell it to the noobs who still use win 7
