Used by pretty much every scammer these days but what is the significance outside of that? Do you believe there is a psychology being developed with it? Like: oh he clicked that thing three times. That must mean blablabla.
I know screen viewers are being hunted just like any other criminal if not more since it's considered to go above and beyond online privacy but is there sort of a wetware knowledge base to it? Scammers must have developed effective methods to make all their victims buy gift cards and trolls must know some technique to make their victims believe that their lives are over. Right?

When you can see exactly what another person is doing on their screen. I spend an unhealthy amount of time in front of my screen so I was wondering if there is anything I should look out for. Like this is how the scammers get you or this is how the trolls get under your skin.
I encountered a person who came very clean with what he was doing which was kind of odd. He sent me screenshots of my own screen. I've always known that a screen consists of data and for whoever can read that data pretty much knows what is going on.

If the thread was about how to prevent screen viewers from happening it would belong on /g/. I was kind of hoping to start a conversation about the wetware potential of screen viewers.

does this make sense to you when you read it back? next time, take two minutes to string a coherent thought together before posting.

I'm not sure what grand idea you have about thread crafting but feel free to share it and improve upon my initial question. I'm diagnosed with ASPD so there isn't a lot of things that makes sense outside of my head. That's kind of why I made the thread. To find out what experiences other have with having their screen or screens viewed by someone else. You know. Share and discuss experiences. I know it's a tall order. It doesn't have to be some victim of a heinous online privacy crime. It can be an IT guy who used to work with monitoring an office with a remote desktop who might have had an interesting find.
Question: Does the OP make any sense?
Answer: No. That's why I made the OP.

There's nothing a screen viewer can reveal that's not already readily accessible on your machine
Just know, the more unique your setup the easier to identify you are. That doesn't really matter cause you can identify a person from mouse movement patterns already.
>>
>>42251509
Yeah I think the identification is pretty much nailed down. What I'm wondering about is what goes on beyond that. Like is there data that is more valuable than other if you know where to look. Does a specific pattern in visited websites result in an increase in the purchase of a product for example?

Dunno, if I somehow got screen peekers like that, I’d for the most part wouldn’t mind, I’d just question what goes on futon that, like does my pc lag the more screen views get enabled or how long do they go on for, anyways peace to em, hope they be chillin with me and enjoying the secret watch alongs if I’m watching something interesting, be cool if they manipulate the algo too to get me to click on something they also be interested, it’s like I got secret friends or something and that’ll give me something to smile about more than frownin (other than the tiny moments of “ugh lag” during some heated gaming ya know, but I hope I give yall some form of amusement if that’s the type of streaming you like watching, peace be with yall and God bless, take care)

Right, I see where you a coming from now.
And yeah I think you're onto something, I mean there's a lot that can already be interpreted from a single desktop screenshot. You could generally make a good assumption about a persons age and income from just the desktop view. Like, do they own expensive software, is there any indication that it's pirated? Do they have a cringe background? Or any significant background like a dog or some shit like that. Based on that alone you could adjust your expectations and your procedure on whatever you are trying to pull.
And if you go a step beyond that and have a livefeed from a user interacting with their PC you can first of all deepen your assumptions and I think you could also get a view into underlying mental conditions. I pulled these assumptions out of my ass but it sounds plausible.

>>42255304
NTA// They’re more so speculations than assumptions at this point, and such things reflects on the viewers mindset if they be coming to such conclusions just from desktop screenshots, but thats my opinion

I think boomers are just really easily to trick

>>42255435
Boomers have too much money anyway. Some of that rightfully belongs to indians.
>>
>>42255435
Sure, but boomers often don't know the lengths computer savvy rats would go, just to have a peek at their lives in one way or another, and that really can be said for anyone who doesnt know either
