No Adobe, you will not record my screen!

over 1 year ago from , Lead designer @ Sony Creative Center, Studio Nordic

absolutely not

Just updated to Catalina and saw this message whilst using Adobe Illustrator 2019.

Has anyone else had the same message?

** EDIT ** In case the image is not appearing.

The system message from macOS: "Adobe Illustrator CC 2019" Would like to record this computer's screen.

        nope...not seeing an image... might be something funky on my side though... I run firefox Nightly, and there are occasional oddities ;)

        Adobe is on to you ;)

            lol.... yeah.... 100% agreed with you....that's a big NOPE from me as well...

            there are so many ways a company can get good user data, testing and feedback etc... why on earth resort to this kind of thing? It's gonna bring nothing but bad press, freaked out people, more users fleeing to things like Figma and Sketch and other products etc...

            for whatever 'good' things they think they'll be getting, I can think of a LOT more 'bad'... It's a genuinely horrible idea. I'm tring to picture the meeting where that got 'green-lit' ... I'm not sure I'd fire them outright, but I think a loooooong chat on responsibility, and good governance and 'we don't need more bad press' would be happening for sure ;)
