Botnet Part 2: The Web is Broken (Companies recruiting app developers to use unsuspecting users as part of their botnet)

Yeah I've seen these around since about 2020. Really nasty stuff and i have no clue how this hasnt been stopped by apple/google. Anyone know of a way to detect if anyone on your network has been infected? I guess monitoring bandwidth usage? Could an IPS/IDS also catch something like this?

It's crazy that this is allowed to operate out in the open. I'm not surprised though.
