My take on that is that they're different situations because a CCTV camera has 1000s of hours of footage to scrub through and will likely only be looked at if/when something bad happens. Whereas the guy pointing a camera at me probably only has a couple hours which means I'm likely relevant to the cameraman (ie, I'll go into that final video) whereas I'm not that relevant to the CCTV.

I know more recent cameras are using AI analysis to constantly track and catalog people which is more worrying but the old school surveillance cameras don't bother me as much.

I like the OP's idea for an art project more because it's showing your what is really happening (rather than convincing people that filming someone on a 4k camera is the same as CCTV surveillance) - CCTV cameras are constantly monitoring and many can be publicly accessed.

I don't even think that is the best defense because it takes a very passive acceptance to it. On the flip side, if someone steal my bike or assaults me in public, I'd like there to be some accountability which would otherwise never happen (and vice versa). In the past, if a white lady were to accuse a black man of some crime, then it was practically impossible to fight it. With CCTV, you can prove innocence and guilt a lot more conclusively.

Don't worry, a random Ring cam will record everything. Hope my neighbor likes keeping track of me checking my mail.
