Obscuring elements based on user input

A system comprising:

• at least one hardware processor, coupled to a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium, configured to perform operations comprising:
• accessing a conversation interface of a messaging application on a web browser;
• presenting the conversation interface in a window associated with the web browser, the conversation interface comprising a plurality of conversation elements of a conversation session;
• storing a database that lists various types of combinations of user inputs with a restricted operation;
• determining that one or more inputs received from one or more input devices correspond to a specified combination of inputs that is stored in the database;
• determining that a device used to access the conversation interface corresponds to a specified type;
• in response to determining that the one or more inputs correspond to a specified combination of inputs corresponding to the restricted operation and in response to determining that the device used to access the conversation interface corresponds to the specified type:
• obscuring a first subset of the plurality of conversation elements of the conversation session;
• and
• modifying an opacity of a second subset of the plurality of conversation elements of the conversation session, the modifying the opacity of the second subset of the plurality of conversation elements of the conversation session comprising increasing or reducing the opacity of the second subset by a predetermined amount, the modified opacity of the second subset being different from an opacity of the first subset and causing the second subset to remain at least partially visible,
• wherein the predetermined amount is 50% of the opacity of the second subset.

A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium that includes instructions that, when executed by one or more hardware processors of a machine, cause the machine to perform operations comprising:

• accessing a conversation interface of a messaging application on a web browser;
• presenting the conversation interface in a window associated with the web browser, the conversation interface comprising a plurality of conversation elements of a conversation session;
• storing a database that lists various types of combinations of user inputs with a restricted operation;
• determining that one or more inputs received from one or more input devices correspond to a specified combination of inputs that is stored in the database;
• determining that a device used to access the conversation interface corresponds to a specified type;
• and
• in response to determining that the one or more inputs correspond to a specified combination of inputs corresponding to the restricted operation and in response to determining that the device used to access the conversation interface corresponds to the specified type:
• obscuring a first subset of the plurality of conversation elements of the conversation session;
• and
• modifying an opacity of a second subset of the plurality of conversation elements of the conversation session, the modifying the opacity of the second subset of the plurality of conversation elements of the conversation session comprising increasing or reducing the opacity of the second subset by a predetermined amount, the modified opacity of the second subset being different from an opacity of the first subset and causing the second subset to remain at least partially visible,
• wherein the predetermined amount is 50% of the opacity of the second subset.
