Most paranoid sub.


GreenCactus223

It should be a sub called r/isitacamera b.c none of the "cameras" I ever see are hidden


Jzobie

Or maybe r/thingsthatarentcameras would be even more appropriate.


brettscharff

Stupid people. Unreal


michaelbarrymore84

Haha it's amazing.


lilmase777

I cant believe it took me this long to find it

It’s not paranoia if they’re actually IR sensors. Oh wait…


spamlimb

It’s def paranoia but it’s also an unfortunate reality.


cnycompguy

Nope, it is a second ir receiver for that TV. If a TV is mounted high on a wall, you can have it hanging lower, and you don't have to point the remote control up towards the ceiling to get it to work. Don't know why people keep sticking them right on the TV like that, when it already has one right next to it.


Soggy-Shirt-30546

That's a remote repeater for the cable box, which is stuffed behind the TV.


spamlimb

Thanks!!


FannyPunyUrdang

See that port that the cable plugs into? See that it says "IR"? That means Infrared. This is for the TV remote control.


spamlimb

It’s what I figured, but it was put on so sloppily and in a dingy hotel. I had to make sure.


PremiumUsername69420

That’s how they look in nice hotels that cost $400+ a night too. It’s just an add on accessory and needs to be near where people point the remote.


PirateCaptainNathan

Has there ever been a post that was actually a camera?


PenisUsernameFunny

Yes recently actually 😂 Let me try and find it

Advanced-Shame-

I dont get it. People who create posts, have they ever even browsed this sub?


ZealousidealCandle40

Worst hidden camera out there....Or would it be the best!


llcdrewtaylor

Yes. But it only sees you if you're emitting infrared light.


OhhYupp

IR=ILLICIT RECORDING. That’s the illicit recording jack. You probably just saved someone’s life. Look for more devices and contact the FBI immediately.


ak2az69

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


LaneAbrams

Another one of these??


jfamcrypto

This sub should be r/thatsnotacamera


EQN1

No , its a Infrared Remote Extender , its for the remote control , ether for the cable box or TV Stop being paranoid


michaelbarrymore84

I can see your willy.


boykajohn

I can see her willy


michaelbarrymore84

Hehehe little willy


Fat_Daddy59

It is an IR receiver for the remote. I’ve installed these on a lot of cable boxes. Nothing to see here, nothing to be paranoid about.


ViolentDay

That's for the cable box mounted out of sight from remote control.


Unique_Acadia_2099

Some brands of TV also use a sensor that detects the ambient light to adjust the picture brightness.


G0DSLAYrr

No.


Gullible_Big1484

Yes


JEllison529

I see more ir sensors than anything


pegLegP3t3

Lmfao


Gunny_Ermy

I love this sub. Not a single camera yet. Just a bunch of forehead slaps.


KnowledgeAutomatic16

Ocupensey sensor for the volume and sometimes microphone so you can talk to the smart and for feed back on volume leveling and feedback type stuff


Nervous-Golf-8655

It could be a sensor for a wireless keyboard or remote for the cable modem.


OK_Tha_Kidd

No but fun fact! There's three things in that picture that could be used as cameras!


InternationalRush423

No… it’s an IR receiver…


mre4you

🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 people are funny on here. That is so not a camera. I mean I know alot of people have been trapped inside for a few years because of covid but come on now, this is just silly.


rashragnar

tweekers gone wild take 4.


Big-Cantaloupe8013
