Can someone paste the code somewhere else please? The linked website is broken. And yes, I have Javascript enabled. But it's probably using localStorage (with no graceful degradation), which I won't allow. Is this becoming a thing? Either you give up your privacy, or you can't surf the web anymore?

View on HN

  margin: auto;
  position: absolute;
  top: 0; left: 0; bottom: 0; right: 0;

The JavaScript console error I see is:

  Blocked a frame with origin "http://s.codepen.io"
  from accessing a frame with origin "http://codepen.io".
  Protocols, domains, and ports must match.

localStorage.keys is null, thus the page does not appear to be using localStorage.

How is localStorage a significant privacy concern? My understanding is that websites only have access to the keys stored by that particular domain.
