But all of the engineers passed LeetCode, how could this be?

Why is facebook spyware part of Spotify. I signed up to Spotify via email not facebook login.
In an abstract sense this is similar to how Facebook (ab)used the like button on 3rd party sites to track anyone using that site. Only it’s much worse because with an app SDK they have access to much more sensitive data.
I block all Facebook domains with the NextDNS iOS app — didn't seem to be affected by this. Blocking spyware has its perks.
Is that "spyware"? Some would call it merely wanting to know if your marketing budget was wisely spent - I suppose a lot depends on what data it collects on people.

> It does not matter. Their libraries are dynamic, and they abuse +load functions for classes with some business logic calls. So, +load will be called anyway on the application launch when dyld loads all linked frameworks.

Linking binary framework just enough to break things down, why? What do you do in background? Sending or receiving some data even it's not been initialized?

Facebook engineering generally is super competent. Leet code or not, such slip ups are bound to happen from time to time. True test of competence would be these mistakes don't repeat and that they learn from it, which I'm pretty sure they would.
Which begs the question why test engineers with leetcode trivia bullshit. You are yourself emphasizing why their interview process (and they are just one of many offenders) is so bananas inappropriate.
