The big Facebook crash of 2020 and the problem of third-party SDK creep

Read Original

The article details the 2020 Facebook SDK crash that caused widespread iOS app failures. It uses this incident to discuss the broader issue of 'third-party SDK creep,' where apps embed code from companies like Facebook and Google, granting them potential control and data access. The author argues this poses a greater threat than platform monopolies, compromising app stability and user privacy.
