If you work in an open-plan office and you’re sick of shoulder-surfing—this is a sensible, low-effort fix. Kensington privacy screens are usually good quality for the money, and the “2-way removable” angle matters: you can take it off when you don’t need it (meetings, home working, swapping screens) without it feeling like a permanent commitment. At ~£35 ex-VAT, it’s realistically priced for most small businesses that want to tighten up everyday confidentiality without buying anything complicated.
That said, I wouldn’t treat it like a magic shield. Privacy filters can noticeably reduce brightness and make the display look a bit less crisp, especially if you rely on screen colour/contrast for anything beyond office basics. Also, if you’re often using your Surface outdoors or under harsh lighting, the performance you get may feel “good enough” rather than perfect. This is best for admin, finance, HR, support desks, and anyone regularly handling sensitive docs on a 13.5" Surface—less ideal if you’re doing colour-critical work or you hate the idea of altering how your screen looks.
