I'm always surprised how bad ideas spread faster than good ideas among our rulers. Here is a map of countries where an ID is required (or not) https://www.comparitech.com/blog/vpn-privacy/sim-card-regist...

From what I understand, some camera modules for ESP32 have built-in video encoding, so basically the ESP32 will only have to manage the encryption + network.
If you are interested, take a look at what SeeedStudio are doing. I think It's worth exploring for very cheap cameras, but yeah, no AI (without an additional accelerator).

RSIC-V based are probably the most widely available microcontrollers / dev boards, but they unfortunately don't have AES accelerators.
On the other hand, ChaCha20 (or ChaCha12) run great on them.

This is great, congrats!
Do you think it would be possible to use ESP32 (RISC-V CPUs) based cameras?
Both for cost reduction and availability of the hardware reasons.
Maybe with a ChaCha20-based cipher instead of AES?

ESP32-S3 may be the worse model to run Rust on due to the XTensa cores that makes the toolchain unnecessarily complicated.
The newer model, C3, C6, C5 all have RSIC-V cores which make it a dream to run Rust (basically: rustup target add riscv32imac-unknown-none-elf).
Here is a good introduction: https://kerkour.com/introduction-to-embedded-development-wit...
I think you should highlight more the IoT use case, It's a really great solution for devices that need to talk over multiple transports (Lora + IP) and to avoid the need for a VPN.
