The first crash signature in this bug is no longer occurring in recent builds - I am updating the summary of this bug to reflect that. The second signature started increasing around the end of March - see the graph trend over 6 months. The various 66 releases had over 4K in crashes and it currently sits as the #17 crash overall in 66.0.2. The signature is seen in 67 nightly but I don't see crashes in 67 beta or 68 nightly.

Very wide spectrum of devices and APIs.

The long term trend for the remaining signature shows since 5-21 it has been trending down. Crashes are still visible in 68 beta and nightly but the volume isn't significant.

[@ java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: at android.database.DatabaseUtils.readExceptionFromParcel(DatabaseUtils.java) ] is #9 overall on release. Visible on beta, but very low volume on Fennec nightly. Google Pixel devices are crashing on API 29 (along with lots of others) - we might want to revisit at some point if the this continues in the top 10 after the next release.

Lots of the URLs are about:blank, but there doesn't seem to be a particular trend in the URLs. Also comments are not particularly useful.
