Cam asked. So, I'll answer.
Personally, I couldn't care less if the people around me can see my info on
the screen. So what, if they know I have 253,899 points. They can't use
the points. So what, if they know my PIN. They don't have my card, so
knowing the PIN is useless to them. I'm not concerned about privacy at a
players club kiosk.
I have been approached in casinos many times over the years and have had
many conversations (or, idle chit chat) with many total strangers about a
lot of different subjects. But, I have never had anyone discuss my player
account with me while standing in front of a kiosk.
If someone to talk to me about my player account while at a kiosk, I don't
think I would react any differently than I do when a stranger comments on my
royal flush on the screen while I'm waiting for a hand-pay - or, any other
of thousands of other insignificant chit chat. I see no reason to be rude
to them when players (or employees) talk to me unsolicited. It's harmless
to me.
But, sometimes, if I'm in a bad mood, I may just ignore them. If I don't
reply to them, they get the idea - that I'm not interested in talking with
them. Again, there's no reason to be mean or rude to them.

So wanted to know if I'm alone in wanted privacy at the Kiosks?
I have to enter a pin and my points and what I'm doing isn't really
anyone's business (at least to me)..So twice in the last week, I've had
people get up over my shoulder and comment about what I was doing! I'm so
nonplussed, I don't even know the right response. I was a bit rude and just
asked if I could have some privacy. So, is it just me or does anyone else
concur? Just wanted to know if I'm over-sensitive as I'm very new to
Vegas...(finally here) and kinda wondered if this has happened to others or
if its just few fluke occurances?
