It says this 3 times without elaborating. How does this work?

I want one that has a print of the "On Air" signs seen in studios.

I honestly think that something like that needs to happen to things like the Meta RayBan glasses that do live streaming. Instead of the eyeballs that Apple's device is using, it should have a "Recording In Progress" or "On Air" across the lenses. Just because I'm in public and prone to be captured in someone's image capture doesn't mean that I have to be part of their money making venture.

IR blasting clothing is still legal to wear!

Like the anti-paparazzi clothes that regularly pop up in crystal clear photos?

If you mean the retroreflective stuff, that's because it requires a bright flash to work. Modern digital cameras now are generally good enough to not require flash for a good picture, even in low-light conditions, so paparazzi don't use them near as often.

Clothing or accessories that shine IR are a completely different functionality and while they could be stopped by paparazzi buying better IR filters, that requires an additional cost on top of the camera
