People who have been arrested don't usually just hang out in the lobby. There is no expectation of privacy in any public space

That is not universally true, there are some expectations of privacy in some public places. For example, public restrooms, phone booths, dressing rooms, people's person, car, belongings, etc.

But there should be protection against being recorded against your will.

In a public place? Why?

If you’ve been somewhere others saw you, and it was a place where privacy is not expected (i.e. not someone peeking into your backyard or a bathroom stall), why should others be prevented from recording and retelling this, if they want to?
