Or, let the market decide if this is a good idea that is wanted or not. I have no issue with offering consumers a choice.
Consumers are stupid, and the market is manipulated by billionaires. Billionaires will implement this software anyway, and consumers will swallow this "feature," not knowing that they have a choice to not be surveiled by yet another camera, this time slurping up potential health data.
