Screenshots have evolved to be one of the key methods to represent any form of content in a better way. For instance, explaining how a website looks can be done using elaborative words but it will never replace the satisfaction the recipient gets when they actually take a look at the website in a screenshot. But several times, people forget to hide sensitive data while taking screenshots which might risk their privacy. To get around this problem, there is a Chrome extension named DataMask that hides all your sensitive data.

On clicking the extension’s icon, all the sensitive information in the current screen will be hidden and you can proceed with your extension. One feature I found missing in the extension is the toggle to roll back to the original version. But don’t worry, I have found a workaround for getting around this. Simply hitting the refresh button will bring everything back to normal but a toggle to switch between censored and uncensored versions would have been more convenient. I hope the developer adds it in a future update.
