Wouldn't you say that as a parent it is your obligation to protect the child's privacy? The threat model doesn't even matter, there will be one eventually. All

Wouldn't you say that as a parent it is your obligation to protect the child's privacy? The threat model doesn't even matter, there will be one eventually. All data can be used and combined (now or in the future). Is it that hard to imagine a future where recordings of a child can be used to recreate the voice of the same person as an adult...hardly.
I find a "where's the harm" attitude towards privacy/data collection very troubling...doubly so if you are making that decision for someone else who can't protect themselves yet. Ethically it's probably a bigger problem than having such a lax attitude about your own privacy (which if perfectly fine/freedom of choice).
And yes I also rant and rave about parents who post pictures of their children everywhere.
