Overview

PROTECT YOUR PRIVACY DURING SCREEN RECORDINGS, LIVE STREAMS, AND VIRTUAL MEETINGS WITH EMAIL BLURRER.

Have you ever been recording a coding tutorial, presenting a project to clients, teaching a live online class, or simply sharing your screen during a team meeting, only to accidentally expose your personal or professional email addresses? A simple hover over a profile icon or a quick glance at an inbox can leak sensitive information to the entire internet.

The panic sets in. You either have to scrap the recording, spend hours hunting for the blur tool in your video editor, or worse—deal with the privacy fallout of your data being out there.

Email Blurrer is the ultimate, lightweight privacy solution designed to stop accidental email leaks before they happen. It actively scans the webpage you are viewing and instantly masks any visible email addresses, replacing them with a sleek, unreadable redaction bar.

CORE FEATURES & TECHNICAL HIGHLIGHTS
--------------------------------------------------

[ Absolute Redaction - Safe Mode ]
We don't just blur the text slightly—Email Blurrer applies a solid, impenetrable black redaction bar over the email address. It cannot be bypassed by simply hovering your mouse over it, ensuring your screen recordings are 100% safe.

[ Deep DOM Scanning & Anti-Scraping Tech ]
Modern websites use complex architectures to hide data, but Email Blurrer is built to handle it. The extension pierces right through Web Component Shadow DOMs and iframes. It even intercepts sneaky invisible zero-width spaces that platforms often use in account popups.

[ Instant Ninja Hotkey ]
Privacy should be instantaneous. We built Email Blurrer with a dedicated quick-toggle hotkey. Simply press Alt+Shift+H (or MacCtrl+Shift+H on Mac) to turn your privacy protection on or off in a fraction of a second, without ever needing to click through menus.

[ Zero Performance Impact ]
Built with Manifest V3 (MV3) principles, the extension is highly optimized. It uses an intelligent MutationObserver operating strictly in document_idle, meaning it protects your privacy without slowing down your browser or consuming excess memory.

WHO IS EMAIL BLURRER FOR?

• Content Creators & YouTubers: Stop spending hours in post-production blurring out your email in Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve. Turn on Email Blurrer before you hit record on OBS or your screen capture software.
• Teachers & Educators: Safely share your browser with your students during live lectures or virtual classrooms without leaking your personal contact info.
• Developers & Programmers: Demo your web apps, APIs, and dashboards on live calls without exposing the test emails or admin credentials stored on the screen.

--------------------------------------------------
100% FREE, OPEN SOURCE, & PRIVACY-FIRST
--------------------------------------------------

In an era where every tool wants to harvest your data, Email Blurrer stands apart.

• Zero Data Collection: This extension does not track you, does not log your browsing history, and does not send any data to external servers. It operates strictly locally on your machine.
• No Subscriptions or Ads: We believe privacy is a right, not a premium feature. Email Blurrer is completely free to use, forever.
• Open Source: Are you a developer? You can inspect our code, fork the repository, or contribute to the project directly on our GitHub page.
