Remember how cell phones spread, and even people in poor countries with limited infrastructure?
This will be the same or worse. No, you won't be able to avoid being recorded by other people. This will change in the future, if it ever does, only when a large majority understand how the devices are being abused by power to control us and keep us enslaved. But, even upon that realization, if people find enough value in using the tech, they'll put up with being enslaved if they're still comfortable enough. It's a balance, and power knows it. They're working out the details as they go.
This is what's coming. My suggestion is don't have kids.
What is the value of recording everything?
To feed the data centers with yummy personal data. No dataset is to big, no picture of the side of someone's arm is too pointless. We must consume all data
