This page aggregates measured, corroborated evidence: donors' iPhones recorded apps contacting this domain, every claim below was reported by separate accepted donations and published under a human verdict (later rows for an approved app inherit its verdict). A contact is a measurement, not an accusation — it does not show what data was sent.

What our research panel found AI-drafted · human-reviewed
We ask several independent AI models the same question and publish their answers separately — cross-vendor agreement is evidence against fabrication, and disagreement is worth seeing. 3 of 3 models answered, overall confidence medium — classification split: anthropic=analytics, openai=analytics, gemini=first-party. A human reviewed this domain's claims before anything here published.
Anthropic Claude — analytics
taobao.com is an Alibaba Group domain, and the 'adashx' host is widely observed as the collection endpoint for Alibaba's UserTrack/mobile analytics SDK, so this is first-party-affiliated analytics rather than third-party ad tech (I have no vendor attestation confirming the endpoint's exact function). The app already declares collecting app interactions, device or other IDs, crash logs, and diagnostics, which covers this flow.
OpenAI — analytics
The adashx.m.taobao.com hostname appears consistent with an analytics or telemetry endpoint. The app's label declares App Interactions, Device or Other IDs, Diagnostics, and performance data, so this contact is not clearly outside the declared collection.
Google Gemini — first-party
adashx.m.taobao.com is an internal telemetry and analytics endpoint operated by Alibaba Group, the parent company of both Taobao and Alibaba.com. Because it is owned by the app's publisher group and the app discloses collecting app interactions, device IDs, and performance diagnostics, this contact appears disclosed.
