question Are there advanced surveillance systems in which you are flagged for making eye contact with a camera?

Has anyone heard of this? I was reading some newer systems can detect “unusual behavior” which I figure would involve staring directly at the camera. I am not saying it’s 100% true im just wondering if anyone has heard of this?

I just feel that would be another thing. My boss tells me id anyone with sunglasses on. Especially if they also have a hoodie. So I figure that would also possibly be detected as unusual behavior?

I’m not sure thing is it’s really hard for me not to look at cameras I have to teach myself to take a millisecond look and memorize the type and exact location of it. But if sunglasses are the safer option I’ll gladly wear them.
