window.webkitStorageInfo' is deprecated warning while iterating window object

Please consider the following code in html/javascript:

<html>

<head>

<script>

    var myObject = {};

    var mySecondReference = myObject;



    for (s in window)

      if (window[s]===myObject)

        alert(reference found:  + s);

</script>

</head>

</html>

It iterates though the window object in order to search any references to a given object. It works fine everywhere, however in Chrome/ium gives me the following warnings:

'window.webkitStorageInfo' is deprecated. Please use 'navigator.webkitTemporaryStorage' or 'navigator.webkitPersistentStorage' instead.

test.html:8 'webkitIndexedDB' is deprecated. Please use 'indexedDB' instead.

Is it something I should be scared of (especially with future versions of chrome browser)?

How can I get rid of those messages?

It's not something you have to worry about, If you don't want to see them, just filter it

var myObject = {};

var mySecondReference = myObject;



for (s in window)

  if (!/webkitStorageInfo|webkitIndexedDB/.test(s) && window[s]===myObject)

    alert(reference found:  + s);
