Bounties in anarchy systems

It was my understanding that on anarchy systems we could fire at will, and no bounties would be accrued.

I was at LTT 7857, which is in anarchy, and got bounties for shooting system ships.
 
When you drop into normal space bottom left quadrant will display information about local allegiance. Also if you target a ship and it is not labeled "lawless" then you are in a legal jurisdiction.

But, I just checked and in fact there is a much simpler explanation: the system is undergoing a civil war and just turned Federal.

Need to pay more attention to those things. Was my first incursion to anarchy systems, as I was thinking of going after elite ships.

Might be safer on the short term to keep to wanted ships on compromised beacons :)
