Didn't Sony/Nikon/Fuji go through a scandal a decade or two ago where a camera's infrared-based, low-light enhancer was effectively taking nudes of fully-clothed subjects? All clothing is semi-transparent to IR, to varying levels. A mask may not be an effective way to hide your face from a sensitive IR receptor.
Edit: the camera model was a Sony[1] handycam, sold in 1998. It had a "NightShot" mode that removed the IR filter - activating this mode in daylight effectively enabled "X-Ray" vision.
