There's a Scott Alexander essay Against Signal Boosting as Doxxing: https://slatestarcodex.com/2017/07/29/against-signal-boostin... . It doesn't matter what the technicalities are, spreading information wide which is technically already available can be, in practice, doxxing. Having all that information in one place drastically increases the ease of harassment.
And I don't believe for one second that only bad police officers will be harassed. There are actual criminals who'd do it. There are activists who would like to get back at cops for doing things like voting for the wrong candidate, or who just aren't good at picking the correct cop to target at all. There are teenagers who'd call the cops' landlord with complaints just for the lulz.
