1. A method comprising:
detecting first digital content;
capturing an image of one or more faces via a camera of a computing device, the one or more faces comprising a face of a user of the computing device;
determining, based on the captured image, whether the face of the user of the computing device is directed toward a display of the computing device;
determining whether the computing device is sharing second digital content with a second device via a communication port or via a screen-sharing application;
retrieving, from a memory, a rule blocking presentation of content via the computing device in response to determining that the face of the user of the computing device is not directed toward the display or determining that the computing device is sharing the second digital content with the second device, and permitting presentation of content via the computing device in response to determining that the face of the user of the computing device is directed toward the display and determining that the computing device is not sharing the second digital content with the second device; and
based at least in part on the rule and whether the face of the user is directed toward the display:
blocking the presentation of the first digital content via the computing device based at least in part on determining that the face of the user of the computing device is not directed toward the display or determining that the computing device is sharing the second digital content with the second device; and
permitting the presentation of the first digital content via the computing device based at least in part on determining that the face of the user of the computing device is directed toward the display and determining that the computing device is not sharing the second digital content with the second device.
