Dont bother to go out looking for the Thargoids at the moment unless you are in a fully G5 rated combat ship wing.
The kiddies asked their mum and dad if they could stay up late. So of course they are running around ganking all non combat ships. I wonder if FDEV will ever do anything about it. Its getting silly at this point. I have enough for 2 more rebuys, but some people may not be as lucky as I am.

Got pulled out of witchspace once. Did the following experiments.
Experiments tried:
Scanned the wake and got new piece of data. Could not follow scanned wake.
I tried an ECM on it and it did nothing. I also tried one on the wake and it did nothing.
I had 1 meta alloy and one each of the items from the alien ruins.( ancient casket, urn, tablet, totem, sphere thingy, artifact triangle. I also had one UA. The only thing that differed from the original video was at the end when it was doing that yellow scanning thing, it did not make that sound like an explosion. It just powered down nice and then flew off.

Experiments that need to be completed.
Someone needs to do a very quick manifest scan. I suggest the longest range one you can get. It books it to get out of there.
Next would be to have UP and possible a Soontil relic in the hold. See if it acts different

If you are in a combat ship you should be safe from the children currently out there. They wont interdict you are in a wing or a combat ship. There Idea of PVP means that the other player needs to be flying a non combat ship.
They could have had a cool half million in cargo had they not blown me up. O well you cant fix stupid.
Good luck and please post any result from experiments.
