> It is absolutely not that. To suggest this, considering the evidence posted, goes beyond idiocy into potential maliciousness The scary IPs are part of DigiCert's CDN for OCSP responder (probably depending where you are and their anycast): https://github.com/hoshsadiq/adblock-nocoin-list/issues/452 The "evidence" is the system made some network calls and DNS lookups. Which you know, you would do when validating a certificate. He also lists some SMB calls to the localnet which are clearly unrelated. tee.c source contains no network code so this would be truly easy to audit. So tell me again what is the damning evidence? Also, are we to believe malware gangs are hosting on Akamai now? They must be in the major leagues. And you call me an idiot? Have a nice day.

There's been blacklists for them since The Pirate Bay started their trial with it, perhaps longer. Here's two: [1]: https://github.com/hoshsadiq/adblock-nocoin-list [2]: https://github.com/ZeroDot1/CoinBlockerLists

In this case they're not the first. They're using this block list: https://github.com/hoshsadiq/adblock-nocoin-list Which was already being used by Brave. You can add the same list to your browser's blocker yourself. If you're using uBlock Origin be aware that by default it includes a Resource Abuse block list which contains many of the same entries as the NoCoin list, so there may be no real advantage in adding the NoCoin list. You'd have to check all the entries in both lists to see if you're gaining anything by it.

> Looks like a blacklist extension to their ad blocker In the blog post comments section they say they're using this block list: https://github.com/hoshsadiq/adblock-nocoin-list The list is compatible with other blockers like uBlock Origin and Adblock Plus so you can add it to your blocker if you want to. By default uBlock Origin already includes a Resource Abuse block list which has many of the same entries as this list. I'm not sure how much the two lists overlap, but if uBlock Origin's Resource Abuse list already has all of the entries from this list then obviously there's no gain in adding it.
