Can you explain what the use case for this is?

In desktop OSs, there's effectively no sandboxing between applications, so this isn't a security improvement - a malicious application could still access the contents of any of Min's memory while it's running.

It does prevent you from accidentally including a Min window in a recording of something else - for example, screen sharing on a video call. But it feels like that's something you'd want to enable only for specific tabs, because there are still a lot of times where you'll want to take a screenshot of something in the browser.

@PalmerAL Yeah, what you said is okay. It is only able to prevent other applications from capturing, and it cannot do anything about memory scanning. However, in some cases, it may only be necessary for Google Meet to fail to record, and this setting can take effect immediately
