Mapillary web site comromised by Faceobook?

When Facebook tracking is blocked. Mapillary web site breaks down totally.

Glance through html shows that web site is heavily integrated with fbcdn.net which is Facebook tracking facility.

This is very much concerning and decreases trust level significantly. If this is done with web site which we can easily investigate and block in malicious work, who knows what is done with mobile device application which we hardly can control.

With number of integrations to other mapping services like OSM, this leads to possibility of very serious level of tracking.

I am really disappointed to find it out this way.

Well um, Mapillary was “joined” with FB some time ago. Have a look through this forum and you will see posts to that effect and the variety of concerns raised. There is also a post on the main Mapillary GUI blog in 2020 about it. The data is in fact hosted on the FB backbone servers, so you are bound to see related hostnames.
