A geek user from Instructables was able to pull a really cool hack with an old LCD monitor. By removing the polarized film within the LCD monitor and attaching it to a pair of sunglasses he created a Privacy Monitor. Only the wearer of the glasses can see displayed content on the Privacy Monitor; everyone else will see a white screen.
If you want to make your own Privacy Monitor follow the step by step guide on Instructables.

It doesn’t work that way. The video is a joke
Did you check out the instructions at Instructables? Sounds pretty convincing to me.
Yeh… It does actually. The video isn’t a joke. There is a sheet of polarizing film in LCD monitors, and this does work. So… this is awkward…
It’s a polarized lens showing a display polarized the same way, which is totally awesome and radically innovative!
Dumbass
This comment is faked. I can tell from the pixels and stuff.
Friggin Crazy!
that is pretty freakin cool
I have to say, that would be an interesting way to hide what you are doing.
