Also if it's only view/stream for friends/external while it's not blanked for your same account on clients.

Merged in a post:

Privacy Mode

Allow the host to mark certain applications as private and these just render as a black box. This would allow the host to have better control of what data can be seen by people you're sharing your device with!

I'd also be happy with a "controller only" sharing.

Enigma

Insanemal: By default I think any remote 'friend' connection is controller-only

Insanemal

Enigma: nope. Otherwise PUBG wouldn't be playable nor would Diablo 3

Enigma

Insanemal: I mean when it's a 'friend' vs you, the admin.

Insanemal

Enigma: I know what you mean. Has that changed recently? I was fighting somebody for keyboard control recently :P

Enigma

Insanemal: Not sure but in the past, by default they just received controller control right away when you accepted their connection. Otherwise, if you 'Allow' them manually in the Parsec host settings, then they would get full control as well.

This could also benefit from application whitelisting/blacklisting that automates this when such application is either started or in focus. Adding a hotkey to whitelist a game for example so when that game is in focus the picture is shown to clients and when the focus is lost again the screen would go blank for them.
