So now they can track down every user that uses the Web version.

  They are porting the codebase to WebAssembly, not developing a Google Docs type SaaS product. It shouldn't be difficult to see that GIMP and LibreOffice can run on this runtime with similar privacy. We typically download native executables over HTTP. Then check for application updates over HTTP. Privacy respecting WASM apps can do the same. This is the new Java, not the new SaaS.
