Screenshot prevention

A system configured for screenshot prevention, the system comprising:

• one or more hardware processors configured by machine-readable instructions to:
• receive content through a first user interface of a social media platform, the first user interface being displayed via a first user device;
• receive an indication that the content should be protected from being captured, wherein capturing the content includes taking a screenshot and a screen recording, and wherein the indication conveys one or more individual users or groups of users for which capturing the content should be prevented;
• update metadata associated with the content to convey that the content is protected, wherein updating metadata associated with the content to convey that the content is protected includes updating the metadata such that a secure text field associated with a password field is increased in size to prevent capture of a portion of the first user interface of the social media platform displayed through a user device;
• cause display of the content through a second user interface of the social media platform, the second user interface being displayed via a second user device;
• receive a request to record the content through the second user interface;
• in response to the request to record the content through the second user interface, prevent the content from being captured through the second user interface;
• and
• in response to the request to record the content through the second user interface, cause display of a message including text conveying that content is protected through the second user interface.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having instructions embodied thereon, the instructions being executable by one or more processors to perform a method for screenshot prevention, the method comprising:

• receiving content through a first user interface of a social media platform, the first user interface being displayed via a first user device;
• receiving an indication that the content should be protected from being captured, wherein capturing the content includes taking a screenshot and a screen recording, wherein the screenshot includes a digital image that shows contents of an electronic display of a user device, wherein the screen recording includes a digital video that shows contents of an electronic display of a user device, and wherein the indication conveys one or more individual users or groups of users for which capturing the content should be prevented;
• updating metadata associated with the content to convey that the content is protected, wherein updating metadata associated with the content to convey that the content is protected includes updating the metadata such that a secure text field associated with a password field is increased in size to prevent capture of a portion of the first user interface of the social media platform displayed through a user device;
• causing display of the content through a second user interface of the social media platform, the second user interface being displayed via a second user device;
• receiving a request to record the content through the second user interface;
• in response to the request to record the content through the second user interface, preventing the content from being captured through the second user interface, wherein preventing the content from being captured through the second user interface includes disabling a function of an operating system and/or software running on the second user device from capturing contents shown on an electronic display of the second user device;
• and
• in response to the request to record the content through the second user interface, causing display of a message including text conveying that content is protected through the second user interface.
