Not sure which country you're from, but it's very possible that your country is a signatory of the Outer Space Treaty [0] that defines basic framework for space activities. Basically it says every country is free to conduct peaceful activities in space, at the same time is responsible for any damage that its space objects may cause. For example the US is liable if a Starlink satellite fails and its debris fall to the ground in your country. As for espionage, every country conduct espionage. It's very likely that your country's intelligence service either has spy satellites or buys satellite images for surveillance purpose.
