Essentially a teleprompter. Been looking at doing something with my external camera for all of the video calls these days.

Huh, I guess this never crossed my mind, but makes sense. TIL.

It has ever been thus. Back in the day, when film still ruled the world and B&H's main claims to fame were grey market and East European cameras, they were widely known as Kosher Kamera in the enthusiast world. Back then, you needed to be careful about the day and time you posted a mail order as well. (The prohibition extends beyond working to causing work. While they didn't consider mail in flight to be their responsibility, any order postmarked between sundown Friday and sundown Saturday was, in a sense, their fault.)
