You are right.
I did hear a few years ago of people using sensors to make almost any
surface touch sensitive, just by triangulating the location of the touch
based on the time it took for the vibration to reach the sensor. So I
guess, one never knows with smart people, how far they have taken it.

Would also depend on if the surface being used to render the mirror was
touch-sensitive, but, chances are that's somewhat unlikely.

put on fancy housses. it allows the person to watch something on a
computer screen, or read news I guess, while he is shaving, for example.
it takes advantage of the fact that two-way mirrors reflect as a mirror
only if there is more light on the reflective side of that glass. if
there is more light on the other side, i.e. caused by something like a
monitor, then the image from that side can be seen by a person of the
reflective side of the glass.
In other words, the same glass can be a mirror in most of its surface,
while also showing a monitor in a given portion of its area.
Not relevant for most of us in this list.
