@solnic, I checked other SDKs, and they seem to handle this correctly:

• javascript-sdk
• python-sdk

So I implemented a similar solution for Ruby in my fork: https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-ruby/compare/master...vivekmiyani:sentry-ruby:master?expand=1

A couple of questions before raising a PR:

• Is it okay to use JSON.generate here?
• Or should we use #inspect (similar to Python's repr) instead?

Happy to raise PR once you approve the issue :)

@vivekmiyani thank you for reporting the issue and offering help ❤️ Please feel free to open a PR and using JSON like you mentioned. The subscriber is using params filtering by default already so it should be safe.
