Most “satellite” imagery is actually aerial photos taken from an airplane which can easily get to 10cm. At least on maps websites; local governments typically give away the imagery they pay for. Of course that’s not taken all the time, so it’s not exactly spying. We do have satellites that film the whole hemisphere constantly, but GOES only has 0.5km resolution or so — depending on latitude, of course.
