What's the usual way of stopping someone from collecting rain water?
Fines/violence, usually.
It's actually not uncommon to have laws that restrict gathering rain water in many places. Lots of US states do as well. If water is collected locally on a mass scale, it messes with water tables/rivers/lakes/etc.
Forbidding it when a place doesnt have otherwise dependable water infastructure is inhuman however.
Everything messes with them. EVERYTHING. Mostly wells.
Killing them
