Privacy is not "convenience", I'm not sure how you arrive at that. And it's also not mine, it's everyone's.

I don't want children to die (obviously). I also don't want governments to track the movement of protestors and dissidents, police to stalk their ex-girlfriends, etc.

I don't think the effectiveness of mass AI surveillance in preventing crime is high enough to justify the drawbacks.
