#2This does indeed kill Chrome (v33 on OS X 10.9.2). Firefox copes fine, with the error message ssl_error_weak_server_ephemeral_dh_key.
Anyone know what's going on here?

#3Kills it on Windows 8 also. Chrome Version 33.0.1750.146 m

#4I'm sure there's a perfectly good reason why I clicked on a link that told me it would kill my browser...
Yes, killed Chrome 33.0.1750.146 m on Win7 here.

#6Maybe put a warning (something in the title) which tells that opening the page may cause our browser to crash? I thought it would open a page where the issue is discussed, not a page which directly crashes my browser. (HN hides the subdomain: demo.cmrg.net, therefore removing the only indicator showing that this is a demo)

#8Haha! Is there an actual link explaining the issue, not just the source? That's a fun demo.

#9That's quite annoying. It doesn't indicate that clicking this link kills Chrome rather than a disclosure piece about something that could kill Chrome. I'd be even more annoyed if this crashed and lost unsaved work.

Tried it out from the console using Chromium on Linux. It's a segfault of some form, though it unfortunately doesn't log anything else to the terminal before segfaulting.
