I get your point, but can you point to a sales pitch which included "exploit security flaws in Android to improve tracking"? Probably not, but we know for a fact they did that.

Also, your own blog lists an leak from 2024 about a Facebook partner bragging about this ability[1]. You don't find the claim credible (and you might be right about that, I haven't looked into it), but I find it strange that you are asking for an example that your own website provides?

That claim is SO not credible that I think serious outlets that report on it non-critically lose credibility by doing so.

Seriously: the entire idea there is that there was a vast global conspiracy to secretly spy on people to target ads which was blown wide open by THIS deck: https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/25051283-cmg-pitch-d...
