In the U.S., law enforcement misusing their access to existing surveillance technologies is already reality. Enlarging the capabilities they have access to, when they're proven to misuse what they have, isn't ideal.

US law enforcement misuses literally everything they can. If it exists and they have access to it, it will be misused. Be it guns, SUVs, police cameras, whatever. It's a systemic problem with how we handle policing.
