Dear emacs users,

how would you hide privacy sensitive information (say email
addresses, names, perhaps even fingerprints) from display in
emacs buffers while e.g. giving a presentation?

Are there better options than font-locking with a black on black
face?

Ciao; Gregor

You could use display properties or overlays to display something else
instead of the sensitive information.
