I have seen those "dirty" effects on windows laptops where using a cheap generic charger severely messes with touch pad controls - but only while charger is operating.

I don't remember seeing any issues reported like this for the devices with IR touch. So, RF or other electrical interference with the capacitive touch was what I was thinking of as well.

its it not really fair to blame Kobo for side effects that are not present with a Kobo approved charger.

Except that the OP reported the same problem when connected to the PC. It could be the cable, or something bad on the PC. Those can be tested. But, it feels more like an issue with the device.
But, if it only happens while using the zoom in PDFs, I'm not sure. Maybe resizing the PDF is running the CPU hotter and triggering an edge case? That again suggests a faulty device. But, an unusual fault based on the lack of reports.
