Are they there to make you look like a fucking jackass? I mean those things don't do shit! I timed one today, and it took the same amount of time without pressing the useless button then it did pressing it 50,000 times. To make the experiment fair i timed it only pressing it once and still no difference. So what other reason are these fucking things there for other then spread diseases and fecal matter?

I don't know what you're talking about. They work just fine. I think they're there to make YOU look like a jackass. Crazy person.

they are disabled in NYC due to the lights being computerized for max. traffic flow.
other places may or may not have them working. I know in some small towns they def. do work.

In many big cities those buttons are dead. And in many local towns they also do nothing. Though once in a while I'll find one in a small town that works. Overall though I think they don't really do anything anymore.
