Opening this in Brave on an iPad immediately crashed and rebooted the device. I don't think that has ever happened to it.

Might want to reach out to a security researcher. It could be an exploitable bug.
Safari also has a bug bounty program so this could be worth $$. At least on the Chrome blog WebGL bugs regularly net people bounties.

(Example: https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2022/08/stable-channel... - the bountied ANGLE and SwiftShader bugs are WebGL. You don't need to craft exploits at least in Chrome's program, just demo crashes that look concerning)

An iOS device crashing and rebooting because of something you open in your browser? Now that's something completely new and unheard of. /s
It is indeed very rare. Can you please explain the sarcasm with some examples?
I made an account just to say me too. (Safari, iPad) never seen that before
Can confirm, opening it in Safari on iPad consistently crashes the device too.
