What's the myth people perpetuate that 0.5 and above means you are invulnerable and the police will prevent any and every crime instantly as it happens- just like they do in the real world, eh?

I didn't lose anything...wasn't me. I just saw it happen and think its crap. It would be different if a freighter could fit a tank, like a capital armor rep.
Drones should be jammed by CONCORD and the fuzz should have a faster response time.

CONCORD already hit for wtfbbq damage, nos, jam, kill drones, certainly better than any real life police agency you will find. Their response times are already unrealistic, we don't need any more buffs.
If you are transporting something worth getting 20 people together to gank you, it might be a wise idea to have a scout + escort.

I hope never, bad enough these freighter jockey's singlehandedly destroyed all trading routes so badly CCP had to change the basics on how npc market works.
The more they pop, the better. If you dont like it, go out of the freighter to jita buissness and start building them.

damage is greater than tank in all cases, and without the ability to actively engage the enemy (as its high sec) freighters are defenseless against suicide ganks - the only way to avoid it is fly with less value in your freighter!

I dunno.
Feighters shouldn't need escorting all the time, things like capship and even jsut bs production pretty much requires a frieghter. If People want to de-lag core empire then frieghters are pretty much a core ship for helping with that.
On the other hand i think the fix CCP did was pretty much spot on regarding the drone jamming and the fact that concord are slow to react is whats supposed to happen in a 0.5.
Just out of interest how many ships were attacking it? -----

Don't undock with it if you can't afford to lose it. That includes your cargo. _____ CPU Love |

Interesting name. That like your "I'm AFK" character?
Anyway, the real problem is people's perceptions of things. Everyone seems to think that there's a high contrast switch between .4 and .5 systems. High danger in one and nearing complete safety in the other by just increasing the system security +.1.
It's the slowness of CONCORD responses that make .5 and .6 systems kind of the ghettos of highsec. So if there's a "problem to be fixed", it's the misconceptions of alot of players imo. I think quite a large percentage of the playerbase expect .5 through 1.0 security space to be more or less the same as far as their safety goes. Incidents like this make it obvious that it isn't. So perhaps CCP needs to look to the tutorials or something to raise awareness.
That said, there are quite a few .5 systems that can be pretty hard to avoid. Niarja is one of them. Uedama and Hek are likely spots as well.
I guess the shrewd freighter pilot would take extra precautions for those sorts of systems. I mean, if I were to look for a spot to set up suicide ganking shop, I would look at Jumps in the Last Hour versus Security Status and go to those places with the lowest security and the highest amount of jumps. Not alot of brainwork there.
So it follows, the freighter pilot should look at those sort of spots on the map with a bit more caution. At least it seems like a logical conclusion to me...

Suicide ganks demend on an alpha-strike big enough to overwhelm the tank. Escorts won't do much, as if they engage, 1 less suicider won't do anything, and concord will kill the escort.
Defensive formations would fix a lot of this. Where an escort ship could hit "Escort Target" and actually put their ship in between it any enemy ships, taking some of the damage.

30 whole seconds? What were they using, civilian railguns? 
Anyway. Allow me to repeat the mantra: "Highsec space is safter, NOT safe." And 0.5 space is pretty much "911's a joke in your town" territory. This is not broken- this is how the game is meant to work.
Generally, if you're not docked in a station, you should be planning, flying and thinking as if half the pirates in EVE space are one jump behind you- and the other half are waiting at the gate to gank you. This method leads to greater happiness, reduced sadness, and world harmony.
Well, except for the pirates. But who cares about them being happy?  -------------------
