Here's an easy one: APD has been credibly accused of systematically harassing police abolition and other leftist activists. It is well established that they were (somewhat openly) cooperating with an armed militia group during the recent civil unrest, closely related to a group who's member would shoot a protester several days later with suspicious motivations.
If you don't trust the police department not to abuse information to intimidate their critics, which we don't, you don't want them to have this kind of unmonitored, unregulated access to private intelligence.
