## TL;DR Do not chase useIncognitoPages - it will not change this. Instead pass a launch flag through the crawler's launch options to relax the cookie blocking, or avoid localStorage in the page function entirely and use the crawler's own state (session pool, key-value store) to pass data between pages. ## Steps 1. If localStorage throws SecurityError inside a PlaywrightCrawler page, it is not a Crawlee bug. Playwright always runs pages in a fresh incognito-like browser context, so localStorage and session state do not behave like a normal persistent window. The SecurityError specifically comes from third-party cookie blocking. Do not chase useIncognitoPages - it will not change this.
