title: HTML5 Web Database Security
body: <p>Should the HTML5 database be used to store any form of private information?</p>
  
  <p>Say we have the following scenario; </p>
  
  <p>You're browsing a web-mail client, that uses the web database to store mail drafts after you've written some information you close the web browser. What's to stop me from getting access to this information?</p>
  
  <p>If the webpage tries to clean out old information when opened a user-script could easily prevent the website from fully loading and then search through the database. Furthermore the names of databases and tables are easily available through the web-mail client's source.</p>
