Work happens everywhere nowadays. We're
not just getting things done on a desktop computer in the privacy of
our own offices. We're in open office environments with nosy
co-workers walking by. We're on laptops in coffeehouses, parks, or
trains. We're on smartphones and tablets pretty much everywhere. What
we do on these devices is still as personal and sensitive as it has
always been, maybe moreso with the rise in corporate and identity
theft. At the same time, it's increasingly likely that the wrong
people will be able to see what we have on our screens.
Privacy filters have been around for a
while and the technology hasn't changed much. They've been simplified
and streamlined down to fit LCD monitors, laptops, tablets, and
smartphones, but it's still the same concept. The filter keeps the
screen clear to someone directly in front of it, but anyone at an
angle only sees black.
They're available for screens of all
sizes, no matter how old. That leads to the biggest reservation
people have when shopping for privacy filters- finding the one that
fits their screen. Not everybody knows the right way to measure a
screen, or factor in ratios, frames, and tabs to the equation.
First off- diagonally. Every screen
from the old clunky CRT to the tiniest smartphone is measured
corner-to-corner starting and ending at the part that actually emits
an image. The frame doesn't count, and the horizontal/vertical
measurements don't help unless you feel like applying Pythagorean theorem.
There is now a simpler way to do it.
Presenting our Privacy Filter Finder!
We've worked with 3M to provide the
easiest way to find the right privacy filter for your device. This
will provide a listing of all compatible 3M privacy filters and
screen protectors with minimal input. If you'd like, you can still
enter the screen size and ratio for your LCD monitor, laptop or
Chromebook. Or you can enter the model of your device (including
tablets and smartphones) to instantly return all the right filters.
When it's this easy, there's no reason not to ensure the safety of
the information of your screen and keep it away from prying eyes.
