Well living things can restrict it, those walls covered in ivy are great
blockers. Also use of dual-natured creatures, wards, patrolling
spirits/elementals/watchers or the mage floating around can all turn into
nasty surprises.

Your correct, they cannot read really, they can get impressions from books
and written material but monitors are just dead to them. Also a book on
computer science would be as dead as the monitor.
