If a camera on every street corner is legal, just imagine what they are doing with that data.
Same thing with actionable data. If the goal is to just abduct you in a black helicopter and waterboard you, the law doesn’t matter. If the goal is to ruin your reputation and put you and other “enemies of the state” in prison, then you need a legal basis. Otherwise it becomes a huge kerfuffle and you become a martyr.
