    I'm guessing blocking (the right) Facebook domains with e.g DNS could help also?

      Yes, it works.

  Wow, second time this year. Not a good look for Facebook. Will definitely push to not include their SDK in any apps I work on in future based on this. Also a good reminder of the fact that third party dependencies come with associated costs, I guess!

    Last time this happened TikTok and Google crashed as well and now they hold it up. Perhaps they did some countermeasures?

      Only certain sdk versions crash, maybe they’ve updated

  Well, maybe don't put an opaque blob from Facebook in your app?

  Should we correlate that with the current anti unit test campaign?
