Whenever you visit any web page with Javascript enabled, you are inherently agreeing to execute some code on your system. It doesn't really matter if it's displaying animated kittens are calculating bitcoin blocks. Indeed, we should all hail this as a great thing if it means criminals becoming less criminal...

Am I doing it right? And if the united states law enforcement uses google glass, does it cause meta-problems?
One time, this guy handed me a picture of him, he said,"Here's a picture of me when I was younger." Every picture is of you when you were younger. "Here's a picture of me when I'm older." "You son-of-a-bitch! How'd you pull that off? Lemme see that camera... what's it look like? "
