Describe the bug
I am noticing unexpected and repeated network traffic to https://m.stripe.com/6 (POST API calls) in my React Native application after installing and configuring react-native-purchases for RevenueCat. These calls occur on every screen navigation or page visit. I am not using the Stripe SDK (@stripe/stripe-react-native) and have no other Stripe dependencies in my project. I am strictly using react-native-purchases and react-native-purchases-ui. The response that I get back from the POST API calls looks like this:
{
"muid": "23af3fc9-52c2-4216-8128-7f587f1554bcf6dc81",
"guid": "aa394064-aec0-405f-b710-7dc69589cb9618b820",
"sid": "d1f730b0-1a5f-48ec-a85f-8004cdd99d10c3ec8c"
}

- How widespread is the issue. Percentage of devices affected. - I'm still in development, no devices yet.
- Debug logs that reproduce the issue - no debug logs.
- Steps to reproduce, with a description of expected vs. actual behavior - just use the latest react-native-purchases SDK.

Additional context
Is this expected behavior OR is there a way to disable advanced fraud detection in Stripe, if that is what this is.
