Correct.  The only networking code sends the public address to google to generate a QR code.  That is, unless something is hidden in the jquery file, but it should be easy to compare that against an official version.  Move along tinfoil hat committee.

I have to say that is the beauty of open source, you can verify this.

There is actually at least one part of the code that does need a network connection (raw txs, get unspent outputs).

That being said if you do not understand 100% the pros and cons of a password based wallet then you should not use it.   It sounds like there might be some bad blood between ThomasV and brainwallet.

In my mind brainwallets serve a very specific purpose and should not probably be used as an everyday wallet.
