Biometric masking includes testing video data and/or audio data from the video conference for biometric markers indicative of emotion or stress levels. If at least one of the biometric markers is detected with the testing, the video data and/or the audio data is edited to obfuscate the at least one of the biometric markers so that the video data and the audio data is transmitted to participants of the video conference with the at least one of the biometric markers obfuscated.
