Is there a wave length light (in red or blue) that blinds a camera but is invisible to (and does not damage) human eyes?

I think being recorded by possibly every person passing by is extremely discomforting.

If you go almost anywhere in a developed nation you are being recorded by a large number of cameras all of the time. The number of public and private surveillance cameras in the world is large and you are most likely covered the whole time you are in a city.
Yes now let’s make it worse. And Facebook branded.
Yes. But that is mainly from a distance in a crowd without audio. This will be eye level, close-up and with audio.
I find this extremely discomforting.
