Do you have a privacy filter for your laptop?
I haven't seen anyone mention the use of private filters in consulting in this forum, so I wanted to start a thread.
Not sure if this is the norm in the consulting business, but everyone at my firm uses a privacy filter. They say the reason is to protect sensitive information.... to allow us to work with our laptop at airports and other public places. Sure that's a good reason, but these filters can be used to strategically position your laptop screen to block view from colleagues so you can browse through WSO during the day, right?
So I wanted to ask:
- Does YOUR firm provide / allow privacy filters? (consulting or otherwise)
- When you are at a client site where nobody uses one, how is using one viewed? Are you viewed as a slacker who reads news all day?
- What is your usage pattern? Do you have it on all the time? Do you drive back to your hotel if you forget to bring it?
- May be a bit specific, but the brand that I use is 3M, and my privacy filter has a matte finish on one side, and reflective on the other. Does anyone prefer to have the reflective side towards you?
I have one, use it in the office and at client sites. I'm relatively junior so people on my teams know that it means I'm not always working but nobody cares, everyone does it.
Keep mine on 100% of the time, spend a lot of time reading news, chatting on Communicator and sometimes watching TV shows if there really is no work to do.
I typically only use mine on the airplane. I don't like the way it dims the screen. But most of the firm uses it 100% of the time.
