   Another interesting point is that this changes across runs. Will continue investigating...

   In the meantime I do have a couple theories about this:

   1. Its a bug, the app is perhaps converting something it shouldn't and is getting something like a memory address as an Int instead of the proper value.
   2. Its a telemetry/fingerprinting thing
   3. It could be a timestamp but that doesn't make sense because the delta between the values changes sign.

   This is input from @akahmet about it

   // from the JS side
   timezoneOffsetMinutes: S,
   S = -(new Date).getTimezoneOffset(),

   Actually they do that quite alot, sending a blob of private memory over the network, lol.
   For example the UDPConnectionProbing reveals some heap data from the android app.
