Re:Reading privileged memory with a side-channel by olliej on Thursday January 04, 2018 @12:11AM (#16068207)
it isn't. There have been a few PoC referenced on twitter, and the spectre paper itself reference a PoC in browser hosted javascript (e.g. random ad can scan memory)

it's obviously not a free + zero time activity, but I'm going to assume someone making an ad to scan memory isn't super concerned about end user cpu usage or battery life..
