An average user will not know that the site caused the issue. The first time after force turning off the computer, it will restart and reopen all windows causing the computer to crash again. The next time, they might click on the button to prevent reopening all windows and everything will be fine until they opens safari which will cause the same issue. At that point, they'll call whoever is their computer expert user to help them out.
- trollbridge 6d agoIt's worse than that: a default macOS install with Safari will re-open Safari, complete with re-opening the tab that was open upon a hard power off and power back on. So to get it to stop doing this on restart, I had to be very quick to force-quit Safari as the machine rebooted. You don't get a chance to tell it "Don't reopen all windows" when you hold the power button down.
