Can you tell us if Smear Campaigns are in game yet? Anyone find one with the update?

So everyone says Chon Hostel or wherever and yet in the same system there's an identical settlement owned by the anarchy faction in the system and there's no faff with bounties and alarms going off so I am just doing my smears there... 🤷‍♂️
Let us know how it goes - I don't think I've heard of anywhere apart from Chon with that drop rate, but anywhere in an Anarchy system can work I believe.

Edit: Pretty sure at least one of mine was from an Anarchy faction as it wasn't illegal, as you say.
 
If only the bars had an actual tender at them. Could literally steal and sell them in the same place :D
Yeah, there tends to be an Administrator who tells you to stay away - I don't think they sell many drinks :)

For a comparison to LHS 1541 - I visited all the Tourist places in Toolfa (it is crazy - something like 40+ Tourist places). Zero interesting drops. ofc not an Anarchy, but certainly seems there is a rule to where SCP can drop - which I haven't noticed for anything else (yet).

3 so far, still 4 left to check (second run).

Edit: 4 so far, 2 left to check... I'm done basically.

Edit: 5 in total second run, 4 in total first run. This one's going in my stealth engineering guide :D

Nice find!

So many lives could have been saved if I'd known that on Saturday :)

I wonder why the downloads set off alarms at some sites and yet not at others... Perhaps something to do with Anarchy?
Yes, it's not illegal in anarchy settlements because nothing is illegal there.
 
Looking in 69 G. Carinae (another large population Anarchy like LHS 1541) - first Tourist base Dawkes's Sanctuary had a couple of SCP at easy access points. Whereas I tried the largest Anarchy yesterday (Grebegus) yesterday and never spotted a single SCP. Fun stuff!
 
Just found 2 SCP in Iah Bulu > Tavernier Agricultural Farm (Anarchy system > Democracy Settlement).
And also 1 next to it in Hakimi Nutrition Biome. Both are really easy as they are the 3 HABs in a triangle.

Of course I was looking for my last Financial Projections, as I've already unlocked Yarden Bond. It's like the game knows what you're looking for and offers up whatever you were looking for previously.

Edit: added Hakimi as it's right next door on the same planet.
