I imagine if my occupation includes carrying a gun, interacting with citizens, and a historically high rate of extrajudicial deaths amongst people I am supposed to be protecting. A publicly accessible camera would be beneficial to easing the minds of those I interact with and providing evidence for any actual instances where I felt my life was threatened.

Probably until either the nurses stop panicking in my local area or the immunocompromised people in my life die of a preventable illness.

Are some options for people who don’t want clothing that is skintight and revealing.

I’ve very occasionally seen brands like this at box stores. But the vast majority of time if you want something that isn’t skin tight you have to get shorts designed for men and some sort of sports top with a shirt.

Yes. Baggy clothing isn’t optimal for swimming, and trunks will tend to stick awkwardly anyway, but a lot of guys would feel uncomfortable if speedoes were the only option. I know I would.

It’s a double standard plain and simple.

Of course, “always cheaper” in this case means less money up front, but much, much expensive more down the road than the initial cost.

Of course, the down the road cost isn’t usually that visibly connected to the “make it illegal” plan, so conservative governments love it.

It might be similar to a Motte and Bailey Fallacy. Though that one is more focused on distinct but related definitions than it is for distinct but related situations. Not the exact one that you are looking for, but the related concepts might be a path towards an answer.

“Most consumers want fast food companies to label when sawdust has been added to food - but trust restaurants less when they do.”

These style of pin backs need to be pulled in order to release the pin. I’ve used them on my daily bag and work coat for years without issue.

“But, when I talk to people in general, most seem to not worry because they “have nothing to hide”, and most are only worried about their passwords, banking apps and not much else.”

Sounds like they have passwords and banking apps to hide, You should demand their bank account and credit card details to verify that they have made no illicit actions.

If they point out that they have no reason to trust you with that information, that’s when you point out that police, government, or corporate groups are made out of people just like yourself. They might have some codes of conduct, or a vetting process, but it just takes one person malicious or careless enough for you to be severely impacted.
