--- Comment #4 from username981618 <accou...@rack.re> --- Just FYI this has come to my attention lately: Privsec.dev (a site focusing on security and privacy but with an emphasis on security) has removed KDE and now only recommends GNOME because of this "security issue": https://github.com/PrivSec-dev/privsec.dev/pull/267/files Following this, there was some discussion on Privacyguides.org (a site focusing on security and privacy but with an emphasis on privacy): https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/linux-desktop-environment-security-wrt-screenshot-privileges/19910 https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/people-should-avoid-wayland-environments-which-use-wlroots-as-the-compositor/17899 And as a result the main website was updated to now mention that GNOME has a "notable edge in security": https://github.com/privacyguides/privacyguides.org/pull/2690/files I think it would be good if Plasma could have parity with GNOME but ideally without annoying the user too much. Perhaps some sort of whitelisting for Spectacle and otherwise asking permission (only once) for any other application? (My guess would be that most users just use Spectacle for screenshots rather than installing a third-party app. Maybe some other well-known apps like Ksnip or Flameshot can be whitelisted, too. Caveat: I don't know if there's anything preventing other apps to pretend to be Spectacle) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
