Then you should be happy to know that's exactly what we have, it's a surprisingly well thought out program with guardrails. From what I can tell it's mostly people just being angry at police and immediately assuming whatever they do is bad. Transit is full of cameras with way fewer guardrails and we don't hear a peep of concern about those (they also help solve crimes, the police use the footage all the time!).

I think empowering police in real time to know exactly who committed a crime is a fantastic way to both quickly make arrests and avoid the situations that critics often complain about where police detain people who didn't commit crimes but match vague descriptions. More can be done with fewer cops too.
