Typing “old” (space) into iOS Safari crashes the app

#152You thought only a bug inside your app could crash it? Now your browser can crash because of a bug on a server, somewhere, which you weren't planning on browsing to, let alone even knew existed. The future truly is here.

#153Turning off Safari Suggestions is one of the first and most important privacy tweaks on a new iPhone. Otherwise every keystroke you type in the address bar gets sent to Apple in realtime.
> most important Really? No - there is no privacy threat surface with suggestions, unless you assume that Apple and everyone who works there is lying about it? ref: "any information sent to Apple does not identify you, and is associated with a 15-minute random, rotating device-generated identifier" [0] https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/data/en/siri-suggestions...
> "is associated with a 15-minute random, rotating device-generated identifier"
Can someone clarify why that's done or how it could even be useful? It just seems (to me, naïvely) like if you're going to rotate the identifier every fifteen minutes, why even bother?

"CONUS" is short for "CONtinental United States"
It stands for Contiguous or Coterminous United States

Is Alaska considered continental in this jargon ?
No. CONUS stands for Contiguous or Coterminous United States. Alaska is outside CONUS or OCONUS.

Is old.reddit.com very unstable for everyone else in safari or just me? On my past 3 iphones through multiple iOS versions I can't browse for more than 10 minutes without eventually hanging/crashing safari. It seems to happen most frequently after browsing posts with images
New Reddit it like that. Page randomly resets no matter what you’re doing. Dumps you back at the top and asks if you want to install the app. They are desperate about getting you to download their app.
New reddit is just harmful to your laptop battery. It fulls one cpu core all the time if you don't block the update websocket. Truly the worst written react app I ever saw.

#158Can someone contribute more than "lol, me too!" and figure out which API endpoint it's hitting, what it's returning and guess why it's crashing? I don't have an iOS device otherwise I'd do it...
Someone from Apple can probably attach a debugger and figure out the problem, but most of us are going to be in the dark.
set up a proxy, install its certificate and mitm it? Might work at least...

1) Yes, people use tweets to report bugs all the time. The problem with nitpicking is that anyone can pick your nits back, which leads me to... 2) Yes, they will, but that won't necessarily repro the bug without knowing which type of device it's running on, so at the very least they might need to check several different devices, and even then other factors can come into play that go beyond basic device configuration.…

> Twitter figured this out in like 30 minutes. It's Safari Suggestions on any recent iOS.
no, it really didn’t.
i’m on 16.1.1 with suggestions on and it does not crash.
