You can activate Snow anytime.
Once activated, it blurs everything on your screen.

This extension helps bringing little more privacy while you are in public places.

Who is behind this?
---
The idea was developed by Abhi M Balakrishnan

Can this prevent shoulder surfing?
---
Nope. This technique improves the privacy by blurring out text on the screen. People around you still can know what application you are using and see what are you typing.
