Last time I used void.cat, it presented a box that appeared to be a reCaptcha "I am not a robot" square. But there was fine print that indicated that it was for "Coin Mine Sync". I thought it was slimey.
I don't run adblock (yet), so did not get the screen

The note was taken from AuthedMine dot com and is displayed regardless if you have a adblock or not, and tbh i knew about the captcha like miner since they also have a url shortener service that uses it , but giving webmasters the posibility to embed it in their websites are news 4me
The proof of work (pow) is really a adblock killer and is near imp to bypass , unlike the normal script with ninja mining where you can easily get what you want in about 5-10 secounds. But hey if you really want the content and the POW stands in your way you can kiss it goodbye as it may take awhile without proper hardware , and unlike the 2 other hosts i would say avoid void.cat (no pun intended:test
and sites that use it as i like adblocks and i want the freedom to support whatever i like (ppl are more open on allowing ads than mining , so not encoraging the use of pow would make the webmasters drop it and consider normal ads)
Final words : if the ads don't bother you , i recommend getting a adblocker just to block malware at least , the internet is a jungle
