At 5 seconds in to the vid you see the notification "Target is invulnerable." If I remember rightly the notification for a target going out of range is "Warp disruptor II deactivates as XXXX is no longer in range."
Most likely desync I'd guess.

Some people should try watching the video before posting, it was not e-war as the onyx and vaga are still targeted, he also has plenty of cap to run the disruptor. It was not a case of the freighter being webbed because the freighter was already pointed, webs will not help in that scenario.
The notification "Target is invulnerable" happens if you try and target someone who is in warp, you should only receive that message if the freighter is already in warp and you are ctrl clicking the overview or spamming the target button.
So yeah, desync/rubber banding or a remote chance that it was an exploit.

why is it always a exploit becuase it does not work in your favor and he got away? Now if there was a game issue that caused him to get popped when he shouldn't have, would you be tear jerking on the forum that you used a exploit?
Do you know that stress is a primary factor in heart disease? I suggest you step away from the keyboard, do something relaxing, getting laid might help.

Really? No-one else knows this?
Freighter sig radius - 3.4km
Distance to object on overview - nearest edge of sig radius +/- rounding issues
Range of targeted modules - calculated as distance from centre of object.
Ergo, your discrepancy.
tl;dr : EvE is all big circles with inconsistent measurement points.
Can someone confirm or deny this please.
I remember that it always used to be the edge of the sphere but this could result in 0 dps when ships were touching due to tracking formula not liking zeros. They then changed to the centre of the sphere to prevent this bug.
4km does seem like a hell of a big discrepancy however.
