I really doubt this would be how things play out. Most crime isn't sophisticated or targeted.

The same argument can be made about internet-connected security cameras in general, that they could allow for remotely casing a potential target, and they're generally considered to be a deterrent, and not an enabler of crime.

Good point but apples and oranges. It’s the centralization of all the information that makes the technology useful for both the good guys and also for the bad guys. Surely there are no cases where those in positions of authority misuse that authority to target people(1)?
