A way for pirate to breach into explorer's ship computer and steal exploration data

As cool as this might sound, it probably wouldn't work out the way you expect it. Here's why:
- Finding other players is already quite an event
- The people you seek are extremely dispersed
- Hunting explorers forces you to go into systems where there really isn't any other prey to fall back onto in case of failure
- You may think about waiting for them at the port, but they can go to ANY port and sell their data. Chances of you intercepting one at the "home system" (which most explorers have not) are rather slim.

In other words, you would be like a shark in the Dead Sea, finding your preys would be too hard for you to survive.
