Keep your filthy computer habits secret: 3M’s Privacy Filter

Is there anyone else amused by privacy filters for notebook displays?  Honestly, there’s all this fuss about viewable-angle of the LCD, and then you go and slap a piece of vision-impairing plastic over the front of it!  Seriously, though, there are always going to be some people who don’t want their desk neighbour to see what they’re doing (nothing dodgy, I’m sure, just Very Important Statistics), and so if you’re one of them then you’ll likely be interested in The Gadgeteer’s review of 3M’s Privacy Filter.

Shown here half-on, the filter comes with sticky pads to go on the screen’s bezel on both sides, and it then slots down into those guides.  Chris Inselman suffered the embarrassment of being questioned over staring at a seemingly-blank screen to come to the conclusion that, if privacy is your cup of mysterious tea, 3M have just the product for you.
