Hey folks,

As requested, I started a research project page to do some analysis around
this.  See
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Mobile_anonymous_apocalypse

It's just a stub now.  I'll have to clear a few other projects off my plate
in order to pick this one up.  You should expect to see updates there in
2-3 weeks.
