Hijack Worker

Hijack web workers in the browser to stop coin miner.

Try this script on MDN's simple worker page: http://mdn.github.io/simple-web-worker/

Features

• Hijack browser's Worker/SharedWorker and ask the user whether to allow them.
• Blacklist/whitelist to always block/allow the worker.

Installation

Compat notes

• This script needs to be executed before other scripts.
• There is no userscript manager which can ensure that the userscript is always executed before page scripts.
• If you are using Tampermonkey, you can change "Config mode" to "Advanced" then change "Inject Mode" to "Instant" in the settings, so the script would be executed faster.
• See hijack-worker-extension for a better solution.
