I call stealing your customers cpu cycles without permission for marketing purposes malware. If you don't that's ok. We can disagree.

It says 'or'.

If it disrupts, that fits the definition you gave.

Or do you think a trojan that deletes your boot sector isn't malware?

Your definition isn't the only reasonable way to define the term, and you seem to be parsing it incorrectly anyways.
