By my experience, i'd say that some people target you to ruin your day.

Wild ID lets you engage anyone, and if I recall correctly, they can silently engage too. It's just a Terrorist ID behind Nomad Talk.
I'll normally engage Wild ID'ed ships on my human ID if they have Nomad Equipment on them. I'm sorry but my character isn't blind and the Nomad menace has been known to the public for ~20 years.

As for your question. Yes, this behaviour exists, it's generally a wrong moral thing so people with a normal moral sense would frown upon those who specifically hunt people just to "crap on them" and/or to make their life miserable. Though I don't think you could can sanction anyone for that unless you have HEAVY evidence (skype logs, proving that ship X, Y and Z belong to that person and so on and so forth).

Also, I don't see why you're emphasizing that killing someone in New York is bad? It's a regular system which has tons of activity and pews. I think you might be referring to Pennsylvania, that is the newbie system that you start out in and is generally full of helium miners.
