Currently, you can buy a private filter for any monitor and you can see what is in the monitor only if you are in front of it. I think they should develop their own devices with the applications to sale them.

mmmm ... You have a strong password but how you will remember it with a sticky note?

Some persons says that a pass phrase is safer password and it is indeed math true. However, currently most of the systems have catpchas or block out and brute force or dictionary attacks are no longer used.

One of the more effective methods is for example: you made a user in a weak page like a blog or something and then a someone break into a obtain a email account and the password for the blog.

Maybe if the hacker is smart enough he could try the email account with same password found and they got you. So, different passwords is the safest method you can lastpass, 1password, keepass to remember your password. They also allow to use multi-step security using OTP devices like yubi key or RDA token
