It's still an available 24/7 live stream even if they aren't accessing it constantly.

Further, they haven't provided any details on how they will effectively control access, the area a crime would allow access to, how long the cameras could be accessed, or how they would handle false reports. Saying they won't abuse it isn't enough.
