In the old days towns would have watchtowers to watch for fires, I guess this would be a privacy rights violation now.

Those watchtowers came down, as they were targeted as potential migratory impedements to several species of birds which flew at less than 500'AGL. Of course the susequent undetected fires resulting from the tower removals cooked the ones who were previously going around them.
