Summary

Sperimental tool that tracks all the web request response pairs, heaeders included in JSON files.

The collected data are saved locally. Not sent anywhere. Data might be further used to study the interactions, extract data or for browser simulations.

Once the app is tracking, passwords sent over tracked sites will move the password to the JSON file too. The author does not provide any warranty for the product. See the license for details.
