Warning!! Your Google Chrome Could Be Mining Cryptocurrency For Someone Else

If you have safebrowser chrome extension by safebrowser.co installed on your google chrome browser, you have to be wary.

SafeBrowser chrome extension protects your computer because it does all redirection on the server, loads the final redirected page, strips it of anything that could cause harm, and sends the safe version to your browser. 

The bad side of it is, the developers recently without your knowledge have embeded th java script coinhive miner, enabling the developers to mine monero with your device without you knowing. It was only a matter of time until someone noticed something fishy was taking place. Some users quickly noticed how the CPU usage of this extension was going through the roof rather quickly. After a quick look into the matter, experts discovered the extension was mining Monero on behalf of the developers.

If you have installed Google Chrome extension, you have to be very careful. The developers could soon be earning a lot of money from users. It is especially shocking to see the company not asking for users consent, giving them the option to opt in or opt out.
