> With more than 5 million downloads since its launch, the app has helped block more than 3.7 million stolen or lost mobile phones, while more than 30 million fraudulent connections have also been terminated.

I might be reading this wrong but these numbers seem very weird. Did more than half the people who downloaded the app block a stolen phone? And did each person who downloaded the app terminate 6 fraudulent connections?

While having the same code for sync and async sounds nice, monkey patching code at runtime seems hacky. Any library that wants to use a lower level implementation of network calls would need to handle the monkey patching themselves i assume.
