> Considering how little mining power mobile devices have and how anyone would figure out pretty fast there's a problem with heat / battery issues from it idk if that's really realistic these days. Hard to keep this one hidden while also profitable

I agree that this is an overreaction, but the problem is real, and the fact you don’t know anyone who knows they’ve had a malware infection doesn’t mean that that is reality.
