first of all claymore would be even now to lower his devfee, especially on the miner 12.6 equiash, which still the devfee is high, and lasts 90 seconds.
in my opinion it is right that there is a lot of competition, if the miner of this boy is faster than only 1% compared to claymore or other miners, considering the devfee 0.65% and more gain for us miners.
the question is: and clean this miner? are we sure that it does not hide anything illegal to steal coins and empty the customer wallets?
for the rest if it is clean and deserves, well come. Huh Huh Huh Huh

You really need to do some reading about how wallets work. A wallet is typically just a long 256 bit password or a private key for unlocking your the funds visible on your public address. It's not like the coins are inside the wallet file. If you don't have your private keys on any of your miners and it's not on the same network as your miners you're pretty much at zero risk of losing anything. Unless you get some backdoor trojan or keylogger, but that's on you. The only thing an evil miner could do is steal some of your hashpower and redirect the shares to somebody else's mining account.
