summary

Internet Safety Labs collects 88,000+ app data points, captures network traffic for ~1,300 apps, and scores 1,357 apps using programmatic company/SDK/subdomain scoring, producing app microscope views and public safety labels. Key findings: 78% of apps show very-high-risk behaviors, only ~4% show none, SDK manifests match only ~40% of companies seen in network traffic, and behavioral ads introduce a ~7x increase in unseen third parties; teams publish a subdomain risk dictionary.
