This is a dual wick check for InsecurityCamera and UselessSecurityCamera to see if they're used interchangably.
InsecurityCamera and UselessSecurityCamera are both about security cameras not capturing footage of things. A few potential distinctions have been raised, such as Insecurity Camera being from the trespasser's perspective and Useless Security Camera from the camera owner's perspective, or Insecurity Camera attributing the failure to inbuilt features of the camera while Useless Security Camera is about the camera malfunctioning. In practice the causes of the camera not doing its job heavily overlap and most examples of both tropes don't really favor one perspective over the other, suggesting there's no meaningful difference at all.
