I work for a company that builds an app /sdk that handles credit cards / payments. It's one of the (many) requirements for getting an industry standard certification (like PCIDSS / MPOC). The app Must block screenshots, and Must disable the camera while using it...
What on earth are those in charge of certification standards thinking they'll achieve with requirements like this?
It's probably to stop third party apps from screenshoting the banking app.
Accidentally screenshotting your bank acct and routing number is the only one I can really think of.
Why did you capitalize "must"?
Probably a nod to the written style of RFC definitions, which have the word entirely in capital letters, as in... the implementation MUST do such and such, and SHOULD do this other thing. In this case, the relevant security standard(s)
We have italics and bold characters for that.
RFCs were being written back when line printers couldn't do either.
