Description
Privacy Shield is a Chrome extension that hides your screen from people nearby. Tint, blur or dim any page in one click, use a Spotlight that follows your cursor or eyes, or let the Look-away guard blur everything the moment you look away. Eye tracking runs on a model bundled in the extension, so camera frames never leave your computer. No account, no ads, no analytics. Works in Chrome, Edge and Brave. Free to start.
