Yea disable player location in player list.

I dont understand why this is such a controversial idea. Are people afraid of what exactly ? Having a more interesting experience? Uncertainty / unknown = thrill = fun.

This would promote interaction between players too, as you would need to hire somebody to scout ahead for you or an escort if you're afraid of being pirated / stopped.

As far as I know it's technically possible, so that shouldn't be an issue (except if the new dev team lacks code wizards).
Maybe not hiding but reducing the location accuracy would be enough (so it would only show region instead of the exact system).

And to people commenting about single player. You still have chat, and about a trillion other tools for coordinating with your team / faction / friend.

Make space big and scary again!
