- p4bl0 12y agoI don't see how this could possibly work. I'm root on my machine, how could a software that some other people use can prevent me to do whatever I want with data that my machine receives? In the worst case, I can screenshot anything that appear on my screen. The app claim to be screenshot-proof. I call bullshit.
- knucklesandwich 12y agoYeah this can't work for the same myriad reasons DRM can be circumvented: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_rights_management#Methods_to_bypass_DRM https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_rights_management#Meth...
- rweir 12y agomaybe you want to reconsider lying in the description?
- cwhy 12y agoScreenshot?
- p4bl0 12y agoYea. On the Play Store, there is litterelly a screenshot of the app displaying a picture, above the text presentation which claim that the app protect against screenshots… This is so lame.
- coke 12y agoHacker News really needs some feature to down-vote ... ;-)
- Artemis2 12y agoYou can, once you reach a certain karma threshold.
- ColinWright 12y agoAll this is unofficial, but based on my own observations: You can never down-vote a submission. When you have enough karma you can: * Down-vote comments * Flag comments * Flag submissions Flags on submissions affect their ranking in a manner similar to down-voting, except that enough flags can result in a submission being deleted entirely.
- Artemis2 12y agoI'd say that you might not have enough karma to have access to all the features.
- ColinWright 12y agoAre you suggesting that with enough karma one can down-vote a submission? I certainly don't have enough karma yet.
- Artemis2 12y agoOnly Paul Graham knows.
- ColinWright 12y agoOr any of the others who work on the code. However, even jacquesm[0] - third on the leader board[1] - says that to the best of his knowledge one cannot downvote articles: http://jacquesmattheij.com/The+Unofficial+HN+FAQ#downvotearticle [0] https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=jacquesm https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=jacquesm [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/leaders https://news.ycombinator.com/leaders

- Artemis2 12y agoHow can you prevent me to take a photo of my screen?
- striking 12y agoSnapchat, but it lets you publish your pictures? Also, it stole the name of a popular Cydia tweak for Snapchat.
