/*
Briefly, when the app is pushed into background mode (user presses the Home button)
Android phone will create screenshot of the current Activity for displaying it in recent apps menu
The recent's app screenshots will be stored at:
- /data/system_ce/0/recent_images/
- /data/system_ce/0/snapshots/
Only root/system user can access these folders, however, it exposes (a very small) risk of insecure data storage
as the malicious apps in rooted device could have access to them and gain access to sensitive info
in the background screenshots.

        // it prevents background screenshot in almost all Android versions but the normal screenshot is also blocked
        // and this behavior brutally damages UX in the sense that if a user wants to take screenshot of payment result
        // in an Internet Banking app, he will not able to do it.. LoL

        The real solution is to use FLAG_SECURE during onPause() and recover the state in onResume()
        Important note: Only works with Android API version >= 26  (Android 8.0 Oreo and up, 20% of users)
        You have 2 choices, hurts UX with onCreate() FLAG_SECURE, or securing 20% of users with this trick !
