I believe there are 4 things you can do before the visitor reaches a distance where they can read the screen.

1. hide the window (or all the windows) with confidential information.

2. activate the screen saver or block the screen (CTRL-ALT-DEL for Windows).

3. Turn off the monitor(s), this is usually a one button press.

4. if you can't do any of those quickly, turn the screen away from the visitor.

Don't make a big deal out of it. It should be just part of what you do as a competent employee.

Remember to block your computer if you are going to step away from your desk.

cheers,

jose.

Can a field be an entity?

Of course! Why not then? A field is something that exists on it's own, by itself. And it need not be material, but a field is in fact material. But due to the fact you may be referring to a computer field on a website or program, yes that can also be considered an entity. Think of it as the fact that it is displayed on your monitor screen and is being projected from a computer, makes it exist nonetheless.
