I mean, people use dash-cams protect themselves in case of a car crash, so do you think people in the future would also use body-cams protect themselves in case of being involved in a fight?

I feel the more likely scenario is for public surveillance to reach a point where everyone outside their home (or near a window) is being recorded from multiple sources.
It’s already the case in neighborhoods and apartment/townhome complexes, Amazon’s Ring. Can’t walk down the street without being recorded on both sides by at least 50% of front doors / driveways. Amazon who was recently caught allowing employees to view hundreds of women’s home camera feeds (even indoor cameras, since the average person doesn’t fully consider how much a single company can spy on you when there’s a camera/microphone reporting directly to their servers).
Very true, I forgot about the doorbell cameras! Neighbors on FB will often post their camera footage when a “suspicious” (read: black or young) person drives by
Sooner or later, it’ll be borderline impossible to talk a stroll without being captured on a video somewhere. I wonder how disguises/masks might evolve to counteract. And if any scene occurs, you’d better bet there’ll be at least one phone camera pointed at it.

I await the day whenever secure, self-hosted services are the norm instead of centralized, proprietary services.
Secure, self-hosted services take knowledge to set up. Everyone wants a plug-and-play solution.
What if, over time, we focused on plug-and-play, free (freedom), open-source solutions? Take framework laptops as an example. There was a problem with laptops being difficult to self-service, so they developed a solution. Sure, not THE solution, but progress in the right direction means a lot. As long as we can recognize the faults in centralized services. (Spread relatable awareness), and care enough to support action which further develops decentralization.
