My apologies for posting here as this is not really "feedback" as such, however, as I recall, the Corsair Laws do not make people that simply trade with the Empire exempt from piracy.
The Laws state something to the effect that they are only to be "not pirated" on the occasions that they are actually in the processes of supplying the Empire ie literally carrying goods to a Corsair base with the intention of selling them there, or carrying Corsair artifacts "somewhere".
Carrying goods across Corsair space that are not destined for a Corsair base makes them piratable (is that a word?) in the normal way, regardless of whether they have previously supplied the Empire with goods.
There have been, and continue to be, special exceptions to this and whilst I am not sure of the current situation the IND have previously been one of the exceptions (and may continue to be?).
