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?

For seasoned self hosters, it’s a little effort. For novices it’s more work. For the initiated, it’s a huge effort, for no apparent gain.
We are fighting the Nash equilibrium, and I can’t see how we can adjust it in favour of self host etc. It’s better to fight the battles we can win, than pour effort after the impossible. In this case, it’s to provide an independent option that is as low effort as possible. This can become a reference to keep the excesses of the big companies limited, to some degree.
Today it might be as much a hassle as to assemble a micro computer in the eighties, but I bet it will be one as easy as filming with your mobile phone in the future.
Question for you, what percentage of people now build their own computers? It’s far less than it used to be.
The point was that in the future it will be easy to set up surveillance cameras
It already is extremely easy. It’s easy due to companies hiding the complexity. Unfortunately, those companies operate in a capitalist system. Until either the whole system changes (unlikely) or human nature changes (very unlikely) they will always drift towards data mining.
