I don't consider mining to be wastefully and this is a extremely 
subjective opinion. It should be a users choose whether or not they want 
to mine. A corner stone of free software is "(0) The freedom to run the 
program as you wish, for whatever purpose." By limiting what is  
accessible to the user based an arbitrary, authoritarian and 
controversial morality goes against the nature of free software.
