OK CCP, we have solved the issue, could you please implement it soon. (tm)
The unfortunate thing is that it does not solve the problem. It simply creates a way to eliminate the need for jet can mining. And there by eliminating ore theft as a profession.
Which is not an equitable solution either.
I guess it boils down to this... is there an equitable solution? And if not, what solution would be best.
I'd say if not then my idea above is a reasonable one towards that. Not everyone will utilize this method, especially freelancers and new people, so ore theivery will continue to exist but it will eliminate this potential "criminal flagging" of ore thieves by way of can opening/emptying.
That frightens the bejesus out of me to be quite blunt.

Why not make a safe spot, jet a can and run back and forth from belt to can? Better yet put a coule of Giant Can's in safe spot in <=.7 that way an indy can pick them up there without being worried about being shot at. in =>.8 safe spot jet can would be safe from all but those that have bm. Take a little longer but your ore would be "safe"

I am not really advocating that mining be "Safe"
What I am saying is that a system must be created to allow people to deal with ore thieves.
Ore Thieves are able to exist cause miners need to jettison ore into space for pickup by haulers in order to mine efficiently. Huge ammounts of ore are needed to maintain weapons, ammo, and ship building that makes the game fun.
So what does this all mean.
1. Create a method for miners that will allow them to mine in the quantity they can mine in now or close to it.
2. Create a method that allows people who choose a career path as a thief while allowing the miners to protect what they are doing. Even the most diehard pirate would surely agree going up to a can and stealing ore with almost no risk or danger is even below being a carebear.
There has to be ballance or the game is no fun for anyone.

As I understand it it's way to come around Ore "thievs"
SO WHY IS THIS AN ISSUE....time should pay I can see alittle here and there ...way just don't spend some more of it and work around it, because the risk in empire vs profit dosen't exist (atlest not for corpo) besides ev. Ore takers. 
On the other hand all this debate just luers more of them to join.

WTF, everyone complaining about ore thieves should shut-up. CCP warnes miners about mining with jettison cans. THEY ARE NOT SECURE, hense the name "cargo container" not "secure cargo can". In this case jttison cans are fair game to anyone. If i mine and it is stolen......one thing to say, "goodjob m8, didn't even see you coming"
enough said
