I think part of the idea here was to limit the requests to the server.   Although this app was created when the libs were in flux.  It is probably more correct in terms of security to "phone home" , that is until we have some sort of encryption client side, maybe

Currently the access control trusts on local storage (https://github.com/danbev/TODO/blob/master/client/src/main/webapp/js/app.js#L255) and not on HTTP status responses from the server (correct me if I'm saying something wrong here) and in nowadays "loggedIn" should be considered useless, because we will trust on HTTP sessions.
