Actually, opal and ground glass diffusers are excellent depolarizers. Light that is linearly or circularly polarized will become randomly polarized when scattered after passing through a diffuser. Please note that the same is not true for holographic diffusers. Holographic diffusers are made of a birefringent material and will act as a retarder in polarized light.
