Think Zoom, Teams, google meet etc
When sharing the screen, it can see everything the user sees. Would it be possible to isolate what it sees only to GUI applications ran by the same user? If I run these as an unprivileged user via xhost, they don’t really work well. Sandboxing via bubblewrap requires knowledge beyond my current skills and I’m not sure if it would work.
Has anyone
Idk what exactly you’re asking for, but this is already an option for me on teams in chrome running under Wayland??? Like when I choose start presenting it pops up a dialog with window options including the whole desktop.
The same window pops up under xorg too.
The difference is that the popup is optional on X. They can also just access the window data directly. On Wayland they have no way to access other windows without asking for permission via the “Portal” popup.
