The county I live in uses this to go after anyone who has (in their opinion) too many cars, an ugly car, an old car, etc. For instance a friend had an unlicensed car in the middle of five acres. The county nailed him for it since it was unlicensed. Before these Satellite views they had to justify coming onto the property to find cars like this. I guess it is like anything; it can be used for good or bad.
