The claim is a programmer, seeking an iOS bug to win an Apple bug bounty, created a webpage script that caused iPhones that clicked on it to repeatedly loop call 911 over and over again causing a denial of service attack on 911 services, with the only way to stop dialing was to force quit the iPhone (I think you can force quit the phone app.) or remove the battery! I frankly don't believe the programmer's excuse. This type of script could work on any phone. I think it was a deliberate act. — PING!

Thanks to Loud Mime for the head's up. Ping to Dayglored and ThunderSleeps for their lists.

or remove the battery!

One does not just remove a battery from an iPhone, it takes special tools and a bit of time.
