Coming up next in Windows and Chrome, unrecordable unscreenshotable pages, to avoid all AI tools. Banking apps on Androidare already unscreenshotable now. Given how LLMs just bypass all html obfuscation, that's going to be the next step to protect these (ad) businesses.


The analog hole.

Until all recording and general computing devices become tamper-proof and locked down, people will always be able to take perfect (yes, perfect) recordings with some work or good-enough recordings trivially.

For this, I'd use a usb camera. For those apps that disable screenshots, I'd just take a picture using the phone of the first person next to me.

In my experience, only the ignorant, fools, and lawyers/lawmakers willingly waste resources on this security theater, with the later group using it trick other people or prevent them from exercising their rights (recording media).

Google should remove this misfuture. This future is only enabling abuse at this point.
