>>I can run a sewage treatment plant next door to you in the privacy of my own home,
Aside from this hyperbolic statement being completely unfeasible and moronic on its face, provided there is not clear, articulable danger to my person or my propery you should be allowed to do anything you want on your property, including running BitCoin Miners.
if you cross into posing a direct and articulable danger to others then that can be address on a case by case basis, but the comments I was responding to were going on about "commercial use of property" and how they could not believe in the US a person was allowed to run any mining equipment in a residential home. No where did any the commenters I was replying to stated any articulable dangers they were concerned with.
Let me as you this, do you support zoning regulation on this like color of the home, if you have a garden on your front yard, the type and height of grass (or mandates that you have grass) etc etc etc etc

Which is why I went on the clear negatives that it poses. > do you support zoning regulation on this like color of the home, if you have a garden on your front yard, the type and height of grass (or mandates that you have grass) No, but I was not arguing that the government _should_ be able to regulate _everything_, but that when negative effects can be identified, "it is in the privacy of my own home" is not enough to counter that -- the negative effects spread beyond your home, and detrimentally effect others (in a concrete way, not just that it is something they don't like).
