A few other folks have mentioned this, but a (monthly?) dump of the database, offered as a torrent link on the site would be fantastic. Not only would it enable offline searching, but when the inevitable take down shows up, folks can still continue to search the database.

#322I'm very wary of anything closed which bills itself as privacy focused and "non-tracking". Can you prove these claims openly? Otherwise this is just a public tracker, potentially full of malware and honeypots.

we only have https version
Will that prevent the GOI (Government of India) from blocking the domain?

Agreed here, the site is using a backend and who knows what this backend is tracking. It should be a static site and open source, so we can verify the claims.

Yes and yes - Right click raises an event, and copy specifically raises an event. If in doubt: If it happens over or in a browser window, it is probably trackable from JavaScript. See: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Events/copy
Over a browser Window? So If my 1Password window overlaps with my browser window, the page I'm on could sniff the entire 1Password window? Seems like a bunch of FUD..
