Here's a case with some nasty behaviour: https://sendegate.de/t/hunderte-falsche-downloads-in-analytics/17331

Example UAs:

stagefright/1.2 (Linux;Android 14)
stagefright/1.2 (Linux;Android 13)

LLM is pretty sure it's always a bot: https://chatgpt.com/share/673f94dd-8d68-8000-b0aa-03333152c043 I particularly find this section convincing:

Legitimate podcast apps usually include app-specific identifiers in their user agents, like the app name, version, and platform details. "Stagefright" lacks such information, which is unusual for real user-generated traffic.
