My comment from a similar article:

Rather than wiping local storage/indexed DB data after 7 days, could you not just make it an opt in thing, like the camera or mic? For example, ask users "Allow myapp.com to store app related data on your computer?". If they allow it, then give access to local storage APIs, otherwise don't. That way users can still have fully local PWAs if they wish.

As an ardent PWA developer, this change annoys me immensely.
