Comment on Apparently CodePen 2.0 sends data to their servers as you type

Comments

the 'it's just autosave' defense in the comments is interesting. is keystroke-level granularity actually needed for that though?

I think what's more interesting is if privacy is the concern, why does the timing matter? The same data is getting saved either way.

Actually never mind, you aren't sending them private information anyway so it's not a privacy concern in the first place.

Reads to me like it's debounced to a few seconds after you stopped typing.

Good point
