The difference between oil of oregano and oregano oil is nothing! One can use both types and the terms are interchangeable. Oregano oil or oil of oregano are great additions to cooking.

I think this is one of the most unique uses of oil of oregano. Imagine a natural mosquito repellant without using strong DEET's and other pesticides. Oregano oil was shown in studies to be an effective natural mosquito repellant. This study found Oil of Oregano repels mosquitoes better than traditional chemical repellants like DEET. Research has shown a solution of 2% oregano oil makes an effective mosquito repellant. Another great use of oil of oregano.Reference: http://www.healthy-oil-planet.com/uses-of-oil-of-oregano-2.html
No, the oregano that we eat is derived from the Origanum Marjoram plant. The medicinal Oregano Oil is derived from the Origanum Vulgare plant. Unfortunately, some people don't realize this and they produce oil of oregano from the Marjoram plant. Watch out for "homemade" oils. So, when you go to buy your Oregano oil make sure it is derived from the Origanum Vulgare plant. And make sure it's percentage of Carvacrol is at least 60%.

In many countries the extraction and sale of oil is controlled by their Governments. The major oil companies in the US and Europe do operate refineries and sell the finished products. Companies are owned by shareholders who want maximum profits, that is the way the capitalist system works.
