> if a developer can reason about the state changes of their app without redux, they should do so if there are performance concerns. Right? That is correct :) However, I'm not sure how many developers will be able to maintain the pr

I appreciate the effort, but this is one of those cases in which there isn't much security added by encryption. If I assume the website owner is malicious (or subverted by powers that be), I cannot trust the JS code provided by the web
