Hardly the point. Using what you've rightfully obtained shouldn't be regarded with suspicion.

  That seems even more hyperbolic. Are you suggesting that no service should attempt to detect fraud?

    Of course not. Are you suggesting that 100% usage implies fraud? There's a difference between suspecting fraud from high resource usage and equating high resource usage with fraud. The latter is what is happening, here, and its outrageous.

      That's a simplification of what was happening. It was a combination of indicators that they list: - A large increase in number of nodes - All nodes using 100% of CPU - AND a lack of payment history I'm merely saying that the lack of payment history is an important indicator of suspicious activity. 100% usage by-itself was not the primary indicator that their article discusses.
