None of the strings crashed my safari, I'm on whatever the newest version of iOS is, just updated it yesterday.

edit: Also, I'm on the iPhone 11 or 12 I think? So maybe model has something to do with it?

It seems to be tied to "Safari Suggestions", so if you have that turned off you won't see the crash.

Not for me, I actually turned that off just now, I didn't know it was "on". Maybe a hacker who resides on my iPhone fixed the bug for me?

Wholesome hacking

If you "hacked" a system, I would assume the first thing you'd do is patch any of your own known exploits, and others, so you don't lose ownership to some other hacker, right?

I'm on 16.1.1 with Safari Suggestions turned on. No crashes here. iPhone 12 Pro.

Wild! Mine crashed the first try, turned off Safari Suggestions, crash behavior gone.

Turned it back on... still no crash. Search engine makes no difference.

Wonder if it's a cache thing and disabling Suggestions cleared that, removing whatever bad data was hanging around, or if it was a purely server-side bug and they've already fixed it.

[EDIT] Some others saying it stopped happening, so may have been fixed.

Same here, impossible to make it crash, and yes suggestions are on. (Although I must say I never get any suggestions for some reason)
