Review: Additional capture logs under `./analysis/facebook/`

1) What these logs add (incremental value vs the evidence folder)

A) Stronger “category spoof” story (declared Ambient during capture)

`./analysis/facebook/CATEGORY-SPOOF-PROOF.log` contains repeated occurrences of:

    undefined

Example: around line markers `5072`, `5117`, `11812` the file prints:

    undefined

This supports “capture start activity observed while declared category is Ambient” (i.e., a mismatch between declared category and mic pipeline behavior).

`./analysis/facebook/category-capture-36504-events.log` is a dedicated run that explicitly targets:

    undefined

It shows a `CATEGORY UPDATE` marker at line `36519` surrounded immediately by capture-start spam (but it does not print the category string at that moment in the excerpt I reviewed).

B) Attempted crypto key capture is present, but CCCrypt hook appears to have failed in this run

`./analysis/facebook/cccrypt-capture.log` shows:

    undefined

This is consistent with other “safe mode” logs elsewhere where CCCrypt hooking fails depending on how Frida resolves the symbol/module.

C) “Comprehensive capture” runs show trigger frequency but not content bytes

The `comprehensive-*.log` files include:

    undefined

However, these logs do **not** include:

    undefined

So they strengthen the “category spoof + capture start observed” claim more than they strengthen “audio content captured” or “audio exfil endpoints observed”.


2) What’s still missing for “audio content proven” from these specific files

If you mean “prove the app captured non-silent audio content,” the usual decisive markers would be:

    undefined

I did not see those markers in these files.

If you have a log where the extractor prints RMS or sample hexdumps, it’s likely a different run (possibly produced by `scripts/rt-audio-extract.js`) or saved in a different directory.


3) What’s still missing for “network exfil proven” from these specific files

These logs don’t appear to include endpoint strings or send-hook output.

To prove exfil using logs alone (without PCAP), you’d want runtime output from hooks such as:

    undefined

Those markers were not present in these particular files.
