Being as how empire ganking is..err rather lame, CCP should introduce a mod that can "cloak" your cargo. Concrod can still scan, but other ships will not be able to.
To counter this(kind of), make the mod an active mod, so retards who carry 1bil isk afk will still get blown up, however your average noob without instas will not.

Firstly, once you assemble a plastic wrap, you cannot put items into it. With that said, thats not an issue since you can make a courier mission for yourself.
Secondly, cargo scans see through plastic wraps
since when?

Would probably be a little bit better like this (steals ideas from Trek ¼_¼):
You have a module which doesn't prevent you being scanned, but emits a radiation which the scanners pick up instead of the cargo.
That way, pirates scanning you will know something's dodgy there, but have to decide whether its worth firing when you may potentially have nothing at all. Of course if the module for this is nice and expensive, they'll fire anyway 
And it'll increase the chances of customs getting angsty. You'll probably have to jettison the cargo so they can scan, then pick it up again, or deactivate the module, or something like that. Here's where the pirates can get their noses in and go for the kill/steal/gratuitous taunt. 
fyi: the radiation in Trek was emitted by a certain cargo, as well as a scan blocker, although it actually blocked scans. Afaik I only know of it from the ST Academy game, but eh. It made the cargo haulers look like smugglers and/or pirates. Anti-pirates liked to shoot them alot, and ask questions later, then shortly get owned by Starfleet for being idiots
