Microsoft is working on adding a new Teams feature that will prevent users from capturing screenshots of sensitive information shared during meetings.
Clickbait title
Doubt it will prevent flameshot from working if I use teams in firefox
"This feature will be available on Teams desktop applications (both Windows and Mac) and Teams mobile applications (both iOS and Android)."
Knowing ms they'll just make browsers audio only going forward

"To address the issue of unauthorized screen captures during meetings, the Prevent Screen Capture feature ensures that if a user attempts to take a screen capture, the meeting window will turn black, thereby protecting sensitive information," Microsoft shared in a new Microsoft 365 roadmap entry.
"This feature will be available on Teams desktop applications (both Windows and Mac) and Teams mobile applications (both iOS and Android)."
Yeah, seems like a perfectly reasonable feature to add. It will also likely be a toggle-able feature switch.
Surely there’s no way Lemmy gets angry at this, right?

I really want to dump on them but I can't find anything wrong with the feature... That's depressing, I'll have to look elsewhere for my dose of "MS can't do anything right lol"
You can just take a picture with a camera, which is included with a device pretty much everyone carries with them every day.
Sure, but it takes extra steps and the results won't be as good as direct screen capture. It won't stop someone determined, but it's annoying enough that most people won't bother.

Bit more effort and harder to do when something only briefly flashes on screen than it is to hit the screenshot button on almost every keyboard.
