No, but like I said, the main thing is that it's a lot cheaper and less labour-intensive. That may (or may not) make it more likely to actually be deployed to monitor someone just-in-case, as opposed to on a serious lead. Putting cops on someone's tail is at least one of those things where the question of "is it really worth it?" would likely come up.
