There is a difference between the two. That's like comparing the fuel use or exhaust of a Fiat 500 to that of a cargo ship.

- Tenoke 5y agoUnder your analogy we shouldn't regulate car exhausts before we regulate cargo ships. At any rate, article says 250k mining devices there so the electricity usage is likely more from mining but not orders of magnitude more, and even if it was it would suggest they are not banned because of how useful it is (arguably gaming is even less useful) but because of size. But sure compare to gaming + TVs then.
