What we need is a law like in:

Dashcams are illegal.

They *are* legal in those countries.

The cyclist would be arrested.

In some countries, such a Germany, dashcams are legal so long as
material is not available to the public. Austria, Portugal and
Luxembourg are countries with an outright ban on *dashcams*.

I know they are banned in Austria as I was going to pass through this year and was warned that there were heavy fines for using one - Garmin Nuvicam.

At least you were warned. Nobody warned me radar detectors were illegal in France! I think no law should apply to a tourist unless there's a big sign for you to read at the port telling you the key differences as you cross the border.
