You can bypass this crap, but you'll need to root your phone to achieve that.
Afterwards you'll need to install magisk (superuser app) and a bunch of plugins: play integrity fix and playcurl_next (to simulate that your phone is unrooted), and then FlagSecurePatcher (which is the actual module that's overriding the screenshot block.
Thank you, I needed this info for a friend
If you root your phone, you give root access to any malware you run across as well. So don't use your phone for anything that you don't want to end up on some darkweb forum.
Rubbish, the superuser app will prompt you if an app asks for permissions, and you need to grant it manually. The warning message is distinctively different from regular popups, and there is a 5 second cooldown timer before you can click it, to make sure it's not happening accidentally.
Rooting doesn't automatically give root permissions to just any app that wants it - you still have to allow it.
