Abstract

A privacy filter for an electronic display (e.g., of a mobile device) may be dynamically applied based on multiple factors. The application of the privacy filter may include determining that data to be displayed on the electronic display is of a private nature. If so, a location context is then determined based on whether the location of the electronic display is public and therefore someone other than the user of mobile device might view the electronic display. If the location is public, boundaries associated with an area of the electronic display where the private data is to be displayed may be detected so that a privacy filter may generated dynamically based on the data, the location context and the boundaries. The privacy filter is configured to restrict the viewing angle of the entire electronic display or of a sub-area of the electronic display within the determined boundaries.
