SOLUTION:
add a probe which gives you the location of the cloaked ship +/- ~10km.
now you warp in. if he's afk, fly around a bit and eventually you'll bump -> lock -> pop the sucka. if he IS at the keyboard, he can warp out. if you don't find him after some time, you reprobe to see if he's still there. the error margin might even be set so that the bigger the ship, the less the margin, for example making a cloaked cap instabump on warp in, and covert ops ships causing added margin, since they're designed to cloak.
there, i just countered afk cloaking without nerfing the whole concept of cloaks (too much). and please don't go, "this sucks", instead point out what parts of this idea could be improved.
The ideas a bad one because @-/+ 10km you can warp in cloaked and drop a blob right on top of the area giving the cloaker no chance to warp.
Cloaks are fine if your organized, plus they are counters to scanning and probing so making them probable is kinda stupid.

do you read?
1. the prober gets a result
2. he cloaks
3. he warps to the result (cloaked) knowing he will land 10km ish off a cloaked ship
4. he calls in his blob of 3 bazillion to warp to him and drop bubbles
5. the cloaker sees the blob land but cannot uncloak and warp cos of the blob and its bubbles, so he gets decloaked and popped.
6. cloaking becomes worthless.
7. disorganized moronic carebears take eve even closer to easy mode.
8. game has no challenges
9. game dies
10. morons move to another game and start screwing that up.
Did i miss anything?.
