From what I can see, difficulty has also gone up by about 50% in that time. Your XMR payout is worth more, but you have to work 1.5 times harder to get to the same payout level.
Two reasons I think this is a bad idea:
1. Mining with javascript is incredibly inefficient. It's likely the costs you impose on the user exceed the value you recover from mined coins. That's pretty fucking rude.
2. Doing so without consent is sneaky, so I'm not surprised that ad blockers are picking this up.
