I guess I'm not too shocked by this. Any company in the ads business is probably doing something similar. It's a good thing I don't have Instagram or Facebook installed on my device and haven't visited the site since 2017.
The native app is basically running a background service that the web pixel connects to. So it isn't really a problem with web browsers.
