Jump point navigation, resource scans and solid location data are a significant portion of any explorer's income, but there are other types of information that are potentially more valuable and more dangerous to traffic in. Will this sort of information trafficking be a viable pursuit, and what are the potential consequences of handling classified data?asked by Oculus Solis

That is a solid maybe. We're actually in the process of designing that. We thought a little bit about eavesdropping and how things like that might work. We don't have a good solution, or one we really are comfortable with, at this moment because, again, a lot of the stuff is going to be created by the users themselves. And whether we want users eavesdropping on other users is still up in the air. We'll try to figure out how to create a system like that. That might be something that's going to be a Comm-Link post in the future that gets your thoughts and your ideas. But unless it's fun for everybody or really, really cool to implement, that's got a significant amount of troll possibility on it. So we'll see how that goes. But that's a solid maybe.
