This is just to serve as a reminder of who actually "owns" your computer.

Overwhelmingly, people who speak in favor of windows, grew up using it. It's like the indoctrination of any religous cult, it works best when you start young.

One has to wonder when the world will recover from windoze brain damage...

Interesting how this will stop me from taking a picture with my mobile phone. The amount of effort people will go to, to make people's work more cumbersome. I am not screenshotting for espionage, I am screenshotting to accomplish my job.

That was my first thought also.

I suppose if the presenter wants no screenshots they’d also want cameras on and you’d have to be pretty sly about using your phone.

Either way, dumb. The analog hole can’t be closed.

At some point, you need to trust your staff. If you do not trust them to keep confidential information private, then why are you giving them the information in the first place?

You can’t really sniff out disgruntled employees until they act on it.

And the phone’s what I’d be using to exfiltrate anyway. I’d only screenshot on the work device for work purposes.
