Sure, but I have literally no interest in revolting and there is no possible world in which a revolt would succeed due to the Evil Dictatorship dutifully uploading all their information advantages to a public server.

Back in the real world, I don't have any issues with the supermarket videoing me self-scanning, but would have issues with them being compelled to share information on my shopping habits in real time with literally anybody that wanted to know where I was and what I was doing right now and who I was with...

A supermarket is not a public space. All I am saying is that all information gathered in the public space should be shared publicly. The idea being: anyone could have been there and recorded that information (since it is public). This will prevent those with deep pockets to create a panopticon of our public environment.
