How can certain sites and services block you from taking screenshots or sharing screens?

For example Netflix doesn’t allow to take screenshots, and in discord if you try to screen share the window is black.
I’m sure that other sites do it as well.

On the Android app Netflix is set with FLAG_SECURE

“The flag treats the content of a window as secure, preventing it from appearing in screenshots or from being viewed on non-secure display”
