This is a time where Keels (or whatever other supermarket) is trying to scale their web operations due to unprecedented demand. They are dealing with finite hardware and software resources and understaffed teams.In the meantime, you guys create a tool that will use up valuable server resources just to keep this bullshit solution running.If 10 people use this tool with 25 tabs, that creates 250 sessions on Keels site (i didn't look at any code - i'm assuming it does)? So 10 people take up 25% of the allocated 1000 sessions at a given time. And how many requests would it send to the server if some idiot sets the interval to 0.1 across all tabs? This is spam. If you really think this is a fair thing to do, you must be fucked in the head.Development teams will now have to spend resources to block shit like this off instead of focusing on scaling to serve more actual customers.Leaving ethics aside, if you really wanted to build a website change monitor, there are better ways to do it rather than hammering their servers across x tabs. This is a shitty solution in terms of software development standards and architecture as well.Use your programming knowledge responsibly to do some good, not to build hacky bullshit like this so you can get some street cred from random online folks.</blockquote>
