Abstract
A method includes determining, based at least in part on a type of information to be displayed at a display device associated with a computing device, a privacy level for the information to be displayed; and determining whether the privacy level satisfies a threshold privacy level. The method also includes, responsive to determining that the privacy level satisfies the threshold privacy level, determining whether an individual not associated with a currently active user account of the computing device is proximate to the display device. The method also includes determining an estimated speed of the individual not associated with the currently active user account relative to the display device. The method further includes determining, whether the estimated speed satisfies a threshold speed, and responsive to determining that the estimated speed satisfies the threshold speed, outputting the information such that at least a first portion of the information is obscured.
