Did you read the post? Nothing is hijacked, but its a trick where they render the normal button in a ui element for secret data, which is blanked by the system on screenshot, revealing the logo underneath. Its a reasonable feature, so its hard for apple to control it better or remove this.

That is a lot of words just to make it sound reasonable that a page can be exempt from the underlying screenshot functionality. It isn't. Not without asking the user.

users should have some way to control if screenshots have secret data in them or not, really. what if I do actually need to preserve it?

  • I like your idea. When the screenshot is taken a user can have an option: Include Secrets? And the Apps can only hint at what to hide.

No, it’s not a reasonable feature. If I take a screenshot, I want the image to include what is displayed on my fucking screen, period. What is so difficult about this?
