Wow, webrecorder seems very cool, especially since it's OSS. Is there any way to set it up to record all incoming traffic? In these days of cheap storage that'd be very cool. I know I personally only use about 30GB a month, so a $70 2TB hard drive would last me five and a half years of browsing.

If you're a coder I bet you could hack it to do that. It has an amazing containerized browser mode where you can browse in a remote browser via VNC, with the remote browser set up to use a WARC-writing proxy. So the general outline would be to run it locally in Docker; expose the proxy port used by the containerized browsers; and configure your own browsers to use the same proxy.

I'm not sure how much this would interfere with normal browsing -- it's not a typical usecase.
