> In the united states the first amendment of the constitution makes it so that any public usage of camera tech cannot be controlled by the state

I'm repeating a comment of mine from another thread, but this is not true. Both recording the audio of a conversation that you aren't party to and deriving biometrics from video without consent are both broad categories that are regulated depending on the state you're doing the "public usage" in.
