you should just fly (aka google maps sattelite view) over germany and fly over estonia to see what i mean. i am not saying this practice does not exist in germany but the difference in extend is just immediately visible. Its probably the most obvious difference from a brids eye.

That's how I found out - I used to fly in the latest MS flight sim over parts of Eastern Europe and after one satellite imagery update I noticed clear cuts everywhere, it was really disturbing. And then I learned that Germany has a similar issue albeit on a smaller scale.
