Polarized Screens to Hide Sensitive Data

Posted by michael on Wednesday September 4, 2002 @12:16AM from the 3d-shark-effects-not-included dept.

NiugMan writes "NewScientist.com reports that Iizuka Denki Kogyo, a Tokio-based tech company has developed a monitor which appears to be blank if you stare at it with your eyes. Only by wearing a pair of polarised glasses you see stuff on it. The idea is to protect sensitive data from unauthorised personnel. Please take your special glasses with you when you take a coffee-break."

  When I stick my finger in my anus, and wiggle it around, it makes funny noises.
  
  Also, when I pull it out, it smells really bad.

"Damn it! Why is it that every time I come back from the bathroom, my computer is off?"

"Bob, I noticed your computer had crashed. The screen was all white, so I turned it off for ya'. You may want to get those IT dorks to take a look at it."
