I don't really see the security problem. Right now there is a popup asking if you want to share your screen, and there is also a permanent warning at the bottom of the screen while the screen is being shared. Also it is only available on https sites. What possible security risk is there?
- dshankar 12y agoIn M34, a user can still use getUserMedia with a screen media source as long as they enable the flag. In M35+, the flag will no longer appear. Thus, the only way to get a screen media source (tab, screen, window etc.) in the first place is to use the chooseDesktopMedia API. That will give you a source id to use with the getUserMedia API.
