I would argue that it is different than WoS. Quite different, in fact.
The reason is that even if the Mutiny domain is seized, as long as you don’t load any compromised version of the app, they can’t steal your sats since they don’t have the keys. You can still recover the sats by fiddling with localStorage.
If they seize the domain and put custom code on it, and you visit it afterwards, they can read your cookies (including whatever you have in localStorage) and sweep your funds
I agree with you though
Would love to see a recovery tool for mutiny wallet that you can download from somewhere else, copy your cookies over, and sweep your funds *without* visiting the website

That will never happen. Mutiny is blatantly fooling their users that is a self-custodial wallet, when in fact,, by default it isn't.
SOMEBODY HAVE TO SAY THE TRUTH.

That will never happen
I'd like to see them try to stop me
I've got a keyboard and I've got a mouse and I can write a recovery tool myself

You... but not them, for their fooled users...

Please show me how you can still use your sats in a LN channel, if you still use the mutinywallet.com domain for your Mutiny account. If somebody will cease that domain, you cannot access anymore your LN channels.
Fedimint is custodial, is not part of this.
