Google is banning all cryptomining extensions from its Chrome Web Store

Google today announced that it will ban any and all browser extensions that mine crypto from its Chrome Web Store … So starting today, Google won’t allow any extension that mines cryptocurrencies into the Chrome Web Store and starting in late June, all of the existing extensions will be removed … The extensions platform provides powerful capabilities that have enabled our developer community to build a vibrant catalog of extensions that help users get the most out of Chrome, writes James Wagner, Google’s product manager for its extensions platform.
