Comment on Omnom: Self-hosted bookmarking with searchable, wysiwyg snapshots

Comments

I have a thought on "sharing" the snapshots. Many pages nowadays are behind a paywall.

Typically you are required to log in (pay or not) to remove them. I'm aware of archive.org and others, but it is not the main point :)

The point is, that if you are logged in, some private information about yourself may be stored in the snapshot. It is less dangerous when it is something on the screen -> you can make a decision. But if is is some hidden field with your ip address for example.
