What's OAN? Never heard of that.

Ah right, that could be. No expert on commercial systems tbh.

I didn't read into the specifics of the IR LED they are using, but assuming it's somewhere in the 850-900nm wavelength with sufficient power, they should be blocking you out if the CCTV is recording infrared images.

There's a video here that explains the principle. I've highlighted the key part, but feel free to check out the whole thing to understand the idea: https://youtu.be/fywvB4Unjv4?t=240

Thing is, if the camera records in the regular, visible spectrum only, it will see you just the way you are. Most cameras automatically switch to IR mode when the environmental light strength drops below a certain threshold, so you'd be "invisible" at night, but clear as day during, well, daytime.

They aren't useless at all, just not in the sense you expect. Those icons are hosted on the respective website and therefore serve as a giant tracking pixel. Better block them altogether.

Every time I'm in the US I'm confused as hell why they call burger patties hamburger and the fully assembled dish as well.

And don't get me started on appetizer somehow meaning main course.

Some do, some don't. The US however requires no such thing from EU citizens.

Why bother posting this blog that doesn't explain a thing and just links on to the original source at the bottom for the actual explanation?

TL;DR: It was a stunt coordinator that didn't get greenscreened properly.
