I worked in a wine shop that had banks of conputers that people could ise to look up reviewer’s rating on wines or place orders on our website. I ended up having to get IT to lock them down to only 6-7 websites because people would use them to try to access their banking. I had to explain to way too many people with jobs in high finance the risks of them doing this on a public computer. Too many idiots would do banking on a flight only to get robbed.

The article is about extended displays though. No traces left.

And The last time I flew the displays had viewing angles tht made it so only you could see the display, sp they were actually more private than laptops.

I've never seen angle protection on those screens and I've flown multiple carriers with them.

I've definitely seen them in American airlines at least in the business class. That was about 2014 ish so I'd be surprised if it hasn't become anything other than more commonplace.

I think they went the other way.
