The unfortunate fact is that if people really want to cheat they will
find a way to do it.
However photographing a monitor is never very good, what with flash
reflection and so forth.
I don't know whether having some regular screen blanking routine at
something like 10 times a second; too rapid
for the human eye to detect, might not muck up photographs.
The only problem about that is you might end up in court being sued by
someone who claims that
the flashes induced them to have epileptic fits.
