      The in game ads already do that these days.

      Just try to hit that X, haha, tricked you! Installing.

      Any touch of the phone for 30 seconds auto installs…

      From a Cybersecurity point of view, I think this is a legit attack. Imagine a server that has many virtual machines, all of which automatically trigger the reinstall mechanism as fast as possible.

      If there is not some kind of limitation on that rule, depending on how their mechanism works, you could cost the game creater a lot of money.
