According to reports, Malaysian authorities are actively cracking down on illegal Bitcoin mining activities, which have resulted in power theft losses of up to $1 billion. Law enforcement agencies are using a combination of high-tech and traditional methods, including using drones to detect abnormal heat sources, handheld sensors to detect irregular power usage, and responding to residents' reports of strange noises.
