Less actually. Engels described this in the "Conditions...", even in the conditions of purposeful and pretty obvious starvation only a minority of victims turned to crime. Especially that back then, even being unemployed or homeless or too poor to live was literally a crime, as the poor law stipulated, punished by the forced labour camp.
So really, this is the point of this survelliance system - not to prevent crime but to criminalise everyone. As old saying goes "there are no innocents, only people insufficiently interrogated".
Considering the frequency of false convictions and the rate at which they are achieved by coercion I'd say it's even worse than that.
