Is there a means to inspect (and or modify) what apps are putting into my local storage? something similar to cookie inspection?

something similar to cookie inspection?
- benaiah 14y agoIn Chrome, you can go to Settings->Advanced Settings->Content Settings->Cookies->All Cookies and Site Data, and it will list sites using your localStorage.
- mcnemesis 14y agoThanks, gave me a chance to peek at which sites/apps have been running experiments on my box (web db stuf,...). The thing I still find disturbing is that unlike cookies, it seems not easy/direct to view the contents of a localstorage (other than its meta-data).
- pilif 14y agoIt's cumbersome, but visit the site in question and use the web inspector. The resources tab lists the various keys and values for that site.

- newman314 14y agoThere does not seem to be a way to disable localStorage entirely.
- nwh 14y agoIn Webkit based browsers, the inspector will list localstorage use in the "storage" pane. http://i.imgur.com/9fAjLQr.png http://i.imgur.com/9fAjLQr.png
