Yeah some pirates are considerd 'terrorists' in roleplay, but are still separate from actual terrorist ID'd ships, which are extremely rare. But the odd faction like Xenos dont even need to demand something to engage traders. Since they can attack or not at their discretion, they may exercise their choice to let you go, if you give them something. In that circumstance, they can demand anything of you, since letting you go or not (and why) is totally up to them.

Regular pirates and pirate factions can still demand a lot, even all cargo if there is a good rp reason. Otherwise most pirates will accept demanding a portion of your cargo, or credits. I would keep demands for credits at 3-5 mil, depending if you have a valuable cargo. For some extreme cases, you may see more! If you feel it was unwarrented or too much under the circumstances, you can file a sanction report.

I'd recommend testing out the waters. Dont always drop your cargo at the first sign of trouble, most cargo pirates will only demand a portion of your haul. But it is against the rules for pirates to demand more than the value of your haul.
