 This is what I was asking because @iamshashank could not naturally
 reproduce it with an iOS device on Safari, exactly as you were suggesting
 in your report.

 Basically I'm checking all reports, and what they are doing is manually
 disabling the script.

 I would rather not deregister the script to test it. I want to know how
 are you making that script to not show up naturally. The exact steps, the
 exact environment, etc., to reproduce it in my device.

 I just want to keep it documented in case one day someone has to look back
 to see under which exact conditions this was tested (and be able to
 replicate it).
