For what it's worth, there are some websites that embed some crazy shit when you screenshot. On reddit, r/CenturyClub will fill your background with a slightly off-white version of your username so that they can identify leakers, and I'm not certain how exactly they do it.

On iPhone: screenrecord. Take screenshots every couple seconds. Overlay images with 50% transparency (I use Procreate Pocket for this part)
This game disappears if you pause it: https://youtube.com/watch?v=Bg3RAI8uyVw
Others have mentioned Branta Games, but I first saw the effect here: https://youtu.be/TdTMeNXCnTs
I first saw this effect in a video from Branta Games.

The effect is disrupted by introducing rendering artifacts, by watching the video in 144p or in this case by zooming out.
I'd love to know the name of this effect, so I can read more about the fMRI studies that make use of it.
What I've found so far:
Random Dot Kinematogram
Perceptual Organization from Motion (video of Flounder camouflage)
This makes me feel motion-sick, which is kind of impressive because I'm normally not easily susceptible to that.
Not technically a screenshot, I guess, but trivially easy to do with software I had lying around all the same. https://media4.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExYXloZ3Z0NT...
Cool. I used the Windows snipping tool and just screen-recorded it.
Has anyone tried a long exposure to see if the motion smears into something discernible? Obviously harder to expose a bright screen without some ND since the shutter speed is the phone's main exposure control
Another idea I had with this concept is to make an LLM-proof captcha. Maybe humans can detect the characters in the 'motion' itself, which could be unique to us?
- The captcha would be generated like this on a headless browser, and recorded as a video, which is then served to the user.
- We can make the background also move in random directions, to prevent just detecting which pixels are changing and drawing an outline.
- I tried also having the text itself move (bounce like the DVD logo). Somehow makes it even more readable.
I definitely know nothing about how LLMs interpret video, or optics, so please let me know if this is dumb.
Firefox on Android seems to just be a static image, I can't see any text.
same thing, but a game: https://brantagames.itch.io/motus
Ha cool! How’s it work?
Fun side effect: staring at the letters for a bit makes the rest of the image move.
You can also break it by recording the screen, of course.
Had a lot of fun trying to break this. Turns out you can screenshot real easily by zooming out. Maybe there are other ways but I stopped trying :)
The text reappears when I screenshot it twice.
Seems trivial to diff multiple screenshots to identify what parts move. Or just use a compression algorithm to do the same.
Coinbase was hacked for $400M when literally someone from outsourced support services was taking screenshots on their phone!
The culprit had more than 10k photos of all security details for thousands of wealthy customers.
You can take TWO screenshots, moments apart, open in GIMP, paste one over the other and choose any one of these laying modes:
Lighten, Screen, Addition, Darken, Multiply, Linear burn, Hard Mix, Difference, Exclusion, Subtract, Grain Extract, Grain Merge, or Luminance.
