There are two glaring issues with your theory: 1) It's not copyright infringement to use a very short clip (such as a screenshot of a video) or passage (less than a paragraph) from a copy written work without reference/citation so long as it isn't used to produce another copy written work, or sold in any form for monetary gain. And, 2) if copywrite infringement were of paramount importance to the legal team at Netflix, then why had we always been able to screenshot their content until just now?

YES !!!! THIS WORKS! I don't take screenshots for anything specific, but sometimes I see an actor or actress on another show and I want to share this on social media. I tried for the first time to take a screenshot of showtime anytime and i got a blank screen. I knew right away this was a copywrite issue. I tried your option and it worked! it's a little tricky tho, the app has to be at the end of the line, you have to hold the app in the center of the screen with one finger and still have two fingers to be available to press the power and home buttons for the screenshot.
