So i have been thinking a little bit more about land claim game play after reading the Q&A now ( https://robertsspaceindustries.com/comm-link/engineering/16292-Q-A-Land-Claim-License/ )
" If someone destroys my beacon what happens to my claim on the land?
The destruction of a beacon is a criminal offense but has no impact on who holds legal title to the land. Because they provide a basic level of remote monitoring capability, though, owners may wish to replace any units that are rendered inoperative."
"Does every player need a claim license?
No. Land claims are only of benefit to those players who want UEE protection when constructing their own outpost, extracting value from an area’s natural resources, or financially speculate in the real estate market. If players decide to do this on unclaimed land then they do so without any rights to the land and any protection which comes with those rights."
"Can I mine or otherwise exploit someone else’s land without permission?
Yes, although doing so is a serious crime and UEE security will respond if you are sighted. There’s a lot of real estate within a solar system and limited patrols, though, so property owners worried about the theft of their assets will often want to supplement public security forces with enhanced monitoring hardware and automated defense drones, hire their own dedicated mercenaries, or potentially join or negotiate a defense contract with a large organization."
And i thought CRIME and i realized that i'm not currently totally happy with the fidelity of the crime system.
Current crime System: You do a crime and you instantly get a criminal flag.
What i want? "I want the almost perfect crime"
What if the UEE isn't perfect in tracking down criminals. So crime which happens around spacestations, jump gates and other "highly observed" space will be tracked down by the police forces in the currently known system very quickly.
Crime which happens around beacons, non observed space might become a perfect crime if the criminals gets rid of surveillance systems quickly. The Police searches for evidence if they don't find anything you wont get a criminal flag (lets say with a chance of 70% [insert complex calculation formula which takes into consideration the distance of the spotted object how quickly it got knocked out and so on] per surveillance type).
So assume Police forces don't have much time to look through all the data and tell the robbed land claimer ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. You might want to hire a private detective / bounty hunter who takes the time and searches through the surveillance data and (for example) finds a ship lifting off into space (Lets say a Cutlass Black). He gets a mission to identify lets say 10 Cutlass Black while one is the actual criminal ship.
So he flys through space searches and looks out for those ships (Whatever happens when players logout ¯\_(ツ)_/¯), identifys them and finally finds the proof needed (or gets shot down while doing that) returns that data to UEE (or even returns the criminal)
If he doesn't well perfect crime for the criminalm, while the land claimer lost his property ( (┛◉Д◉)┛彡┻━┻ )

I'm hoping for a monthly fee to keep up the land clam

Will land claims run out and need to be reclaimed?
