You see this inconsistency in individual people all the time. Like how almost everyone wants to be found easily on LinkedIn, Twitter, etc, so they add a public profile photo. Then they freak out because someone starts scraping these photos to build a facial recognition model.

I think that comes from ignorance of the implications of uploading their photo, not from an inconsistency in what they want.
