I believe there is more to this. I've noticed my CPU fan kick on after visiting 24HCF. I'm beginning to wonder if cryptomining isn't embedded in the site. I would recommend anyone visiting the site to implement script blocking and ad blocking for starters.

Bringing this back up. And before Rocky goes all I run a pc holier than thou, this is a tablet not a phone. Pic taken of data usage for just to load the fire. No threads, just load. It was just as bad on a PC where I zapped the Carbontv.

1 Mb to load the fire 2.7 Mb to load all the crap. 3.7 meg data just to load. About 10 sec. if that. 😳

It would appear that jw*.com is the major culprit then. Any tips on how people can block that, Mr I'm Smarter than Rocky?

Something's going on and that March 27 date coincides exactly with the date my data usage went from 4-10 GB per day to 20-30 GB per day.

As I write this I've been on this site only for about 20 minutes, checked my usual 10-12 forums for anything new and opened maybe a dozen threads. In that tmie my data downloaded went from 5.719 GB to 6.832 GB, that's over 1.1 GB in just twenty minutes on this.

Previously this morning I'd visited several other websites - local news station's weather page, our gun club's site, some on line blogs like The Federalist, checked my email and wrote one, looked at some local classified ads, checked posts on another forum about motorcycles - and my data usage only increased a couple hundred MB for all of that.

Even before I've finished typing this post my data has gone to 7.307 GB, that's about 1.6 GB in 25 minutes - JUST FOR THE FIRE and just for 25 minutes of being here.

Gonna have to do something about this and the only remedy available is hasta not nearly as often vista. Oh well, I need another hobby anyway....

Why is there so much garbage and spam on the fire? Is it Rick selling to advertisers or illegal stuff getting through. Lately I've had these video ads playing that only allow my to see a few posts and then I have to scroll down past the video to see a few more and then it's another full page of the video.

I figured all the and width being used was the government downloadi.g all the other data off my device everytime I connect to the fire. Keeping track of the Trump voters.
