    Wear polarizing sunglasses and now only you can see the screen. Hardware based incognito mode.

    What they peeled off looks like the layer of dark stuff, the polarized sheets look different and are usually behind the indium tin oxide coated layer of glass.

    I've disassembled a lot of monitors.

    Using old monitor panels and the diffuser is actually a genius way of installing fake windows.
