I experimented with this [1] using GPU acceleration. Last I was working on it, phones required you to manually enable WebGL in the browser and even then I couldn't get it to work on mobile. I shelved it, though I probably could have go

Earlier, he claimed he would use social engineering to unlock it, not some technical hacking [1]. Much more believable in my opinion. But the timestamp on the parent's article makes me skeptical that that proposal stood much ground. [1
