Hey HN Family,

Long time no see. After the epic failure of my first product (spent 5 months developing it and made $0), I believe this time I've built something actually cool.

You know how a remote meeting with your team or a client goes, especially when you have to share your screen. Do I have any tabs with sensitive information? Maybe I didn't close THAT page. What if the client sees this or that information?

If you are a streamer/content creator, you face similar challenges as well. Let's say you are shooting a nice YouTube video; but you will have to blur or filter out some sensitive information. Usually you'd deal with that during post-production, and this is such a waste of time.

Well, nevermore.

Blurs is a browser extension that protect your browser privacy while screen sharing, streaming, or browsing, with different filtering options and modes.

You can select any HTML element on a page, and apply one of three different filtering options (Blur, Solid box, Pixels); or just draw a fixed position filter on your page as you wish. The world is your canvas after all ^^

Not sure how it might help you? Using Blurs brings you those benefits:

1. Enhanced privacy: Protect yourself from sharing private or sensitive data during screen sharing and streaming sessions. 2. Save time on post-production: Reduce the need for post-production editing for screen recording and taking screenshots. 3. Complete control over your browser: Gain fine-tuned control over what parts of your browser to blur or filter. 4. Better screen sharing experience: Remove the risk of sharing personal, business, or sensitive information during meetings.

It works on any Chromium-based browser and Firefox, Microsoft Edge approval still pending though .

But, who is it for? 1. Professionals in virtual meetings: Blurs can help you prevent accidental information leaks. 2. Content creators and streamers: By filtering out unwanted elements, Blurs can minimize the time spent on editing or obscuring sensitive information during post-production. 3. Remove workers handling sensitive information: For remote employees or freelancers dealing with sensitive information, Blurs can help keep work data private during video calls or presentations. 4. Educators and trainers: Educators sharing learning materials, or educational resources on screen can use Blurs to filter out non-relevant information, protect personal information; providing a cleaner, distraction-free presentation for students. 5. Privacy-concerned individuals: Anyone concerned with protecting their browsing privacy can use Blurs to keep their personal details to themselves.

I hope that this finds this tool of mine useful. I am open to all constructive criticism, feedback, and looking forward to hearing about your opinions.

Have a wonderful day <3 - Goksu
