“People are worried about their behaviour as it is always potentially recorded and thus may not perform their duties with the same focus and concentration as is necessary.”

I think the reverse can be also true, more so if the use of cameras is routine.

“People are worried about video connections always being potentially enabled and thus having potentially a remote listener/viewer that is unwanted.”

I think this is a good argument for mandating that all video recording devices come equipped with a hardware-activated front LED that shows when a device is recording.

What’s really interesting here is what danah boyd calls “collapsing contexts,” which is to say recorded statements made available to socially-diverse audiences across physical, linguistic, and temporal barriers. In political contexts, I expect that careful articulation of complex issues will become increasingly important.
