I'd be less worried about loss of privacy than loss of anonymity. We've never had much privacy once it come down to it, but that didn't matter as it you were anonymous to the vast majority of people including law enforcement. With the image and face recognition technology we have now, there's a very real risk of the anonymity in public we have now disappearing and that's when the loss of, or lack of privacy laws will become a problem.
