It's a big dumb ganksquad. Literally just a numbers game. Pretty much all that would come as a result of this post is just a particularly dedicated big dumb ganksquad to make sure that a siege party doesn't accomplish what it set out to do. It's that thing people in Disco whinge about because there's some unspoken contract tying you to Zellbrigen or something, and they feel personally slighted because they lost in a video game and have to wait an hour.
It's outplaying the other guy. Sure, it's stupid community-police outplaying, but the actual actions of this aren't that much different when you compare it to forming a dedicated defense Discord server for a particular region.

Place your base like an intelligent human being that cannot be readily seen within two days or just be a chump like the rest and place them around cancerous high-traffic points (which by the way there should be rules against that sort of thing).
What you call "ganksquad" is exactly what all these bully-defenders here propose: "If you want to keep your POB, then get organized, get friends, get your butt into a bomber or cap ship and patrol your POB 24/7!"
Can't have it both ways.
And THERE ARE house-laws against placing POBs in less than 10-15 k distance of any NPC structure, even trade lanes. Official factions obviously excluded, but as an indy you don't have the luxury of building like in the New London defense grid.
