Infamy. We talk about them. Highsec miners who talk also do. The op made a thread, like many others. For many players CODE is the first player-driven organization they ever hear about. Some would say this does worth more than ISK - if not directly translates into it.
Morality in this context sounds a lot more irrelevant to me than CODE.
They say Alpha clones are only for trying stuff. I say it's just the Hard Mode.

Indeed. I heard about Goons years before I even first considered trying EvE. I did read about PL around the days I have joined. Umm, hearing about TESCO for the first time, besides doing my shopping there. 
But I'm not a good baseline for drawing conclusions about a general player populace, as I do a lot of reading, research and such before comitting to games even far simpler than EvE, not to mention that old and infamous space-epic. Let me risk neither are you, based on by the tiny slice of your activity I have seen so far. But I didn't mean corps you read about the news or see in videos. I mean corps that someone without prior knowledge actually -hears- about ingame.
Maybe it would be wrong to assume that most new players just see a flashy spaceship game, or a new F2P title on Steam and jump in, but I carefully avoid assumptions about 'most new players', thus I pick words like 'many new players'. Because I can back any of my claim about the latter.
I listen to people in local of the newbro-systems, Rookie Help and in some voice-channels where random people get invited en-masse. And I yet to see the Swarm or the Legion mentioned there. Yet CODE often pops up, especially when someone asks mining related questions.

I don't care about THEIR game,it simply does not interest me....
And what if gankers make -my- experience more interesting? May I (or anyone else) adapt your approach about anyone else's game?
Naw, that would be too hypocritical for me. I rather just accept CCP's ruling on the matter.

I'm sorry, but one of the main selling points of the game was the 'player driven economy' for me. Just after the 'constant danger' and 'possibility of great losses'.

Becoming a modern game?
From another perspective... Many gamers could suggest you 100-1000 multiplayer games that work exactly the way you want EvE to be (the number mainly depending on how many games they tried). On the other hand, a very knowledgable gamer maybe could list three multiplayer games where constant danger of losing much progress is a thing.
A cynic who enjoys one of those three would say to you to please move to one of the other 1000 options that are exactly like you want this particular one to be. But it would be a lot nicer to suggest you to -try- enjoying that very unique setup, because you have zero~ish chance of encountering anything like this again (and if you did, you'd probably wouldn't enjoy them, as they are like EvE, just even harsher and less forgiving).
