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 high. A human reviewed this domain's claims before anything here published.
Anthropic Claude — cdn
fbcdn.net is Meta's own content delivery network, and the 'video-dfw5-2.xx' hostname pattern indicates a regional edge node serving video/media to the Facebook app itself, so this is first-party CDN traffic rather than third-party tracking. Because the app is published by the same company that owns the domain and the label already declares extensive collection including videos and device IDs, this contact does not imply a data flow outside the declared label.
OpenAI — cdn
The fbcdn.net hostname appears to be a Facebook-associated content-delivery domain used for video delivery. The app's label already declares extensive collection and sharing categories, and the domain contact alone does not establish an uncovered data flow.
Google Gemini — cdn
The domain video-dfw5-2.xx.fbcdn.net is part of Facebook's official content delivery network (fbcdn.net) used to serve video content to the app, making it first-party CDN infrastructure.
