Probably commercial satellite imagery. The protections would have to be legal, IE suing the logging companies for trespassing on your land and "vandalizing" it

Probably commercial satellite imagery. The protections would have to be legal, IE suing the logging companies for trespassing on your land and "vandalizing" it.
It would be way too dangerous to do something like claiming that the company was dumping all of that perfectly good logging equipment on your land and helpfully "cleaning it up" by loading them on trailers and driving off.
