Why is there a global-metadata.dat file?

Question

What does the global-metadata.dat file do? Can I remove from my builds?

The reason for this question is that hackers use this file to reverse engineer my game.

Best, Hu

There are many answers here - https://forum.unity.com/threads/il2cpp-and-global-metadata-dat.909584/ Most of which is pretty unsatisfactory... I think its a case of can't fix it - wont try. @huhund

So in other words what you are saying is that my phone is hacked? Because I found a few of those files on my phone and no idea where they came from.
