Initializing Google Mobile Ads SDK leads to runtime crashs.
We are currently counting ~60k crashes for ~10k users since today at 2pm (CET).

It happens on multiple apps/device/OS, multiple versions of Google Mobile Ads SDK, multiple versions of Google Play Services.
This looks like a Google Play Service remote configuration issue.

The stacktrace cause is: Caused by java.lang.ClassCastException java.lang.Integer cannot be cast to java.lang.String

And here is an example of a full stacktrace:
