Fundamentally people don't like being held accountable for their "wrongdoing". My state banned automated traffic enforcement aside from very specific circumstances, but we're stuffed to the gills with Flock cameras.
Only if you place cameras uniformly. What you need to do to not rock the boat is exclusively place the cameras in "high crime areas", and you get a twofer: rich lawbreakers stay with off the radar, and you get a perpetual-motion machine for crime statistics.
