How to find a POI Pirate Activity Detected

[Barlog M.]

Can't find information about how to find "Pirate Activity Detected".
I only found:

The conditions that a system has to meet in order to be able to find these POIs are:
- System has to be in lockdown state
- System economy has to be of type Extraction or Refinery

But not a single confirmation of this information.
Is this a true?
May be exists manual about finding USS and POI?

It was prior to 3.3 but I found them in lock down systems. Never noticed the economy the system had. They would show up on your nav panel just like a CZ. Not sure if it's changed after the update but looking for lockdown systems would be a start. EDDB is a good way to find those.

As of last night this system had pirate threat levels 5, 6 and 7 https://eddb.io/system/12533, however the states usually don't persist all that long so here today gone tomorrow.......

I noticed this system has them today: https://eddb.io/system/98853

Might not be worth the trip

Just visited this system. The state already is investment. There are no Pirates POI, just compromised beacon.

Lockdown - or more commonly in 3.3, Civil Unrest - generates them.

The economy of the system isn't relevant.

If the system also has two factions in War the CZs can override the Pirate Activity - but not always. Better to look for one with just Civil Unrest for the controlling faction.

Thank you! Where did you get this information?

FYI, Todd the Blaster system (Wolf 397??) has one right next to his workshop planet. Nice place to test out the new Rails or Multis you have just had engineered at Todd's Place! Beware this is a threat 6 (I think from memory) so you are going to experience some 'NPC ENGINEERED' Deadly Conda's and other TUFF ships. Great challenge though much better than the fish in a barrel shooting in a Haz res

By watching when and where they showed up for the last year or so

I've been to the bank and while popping back and forth between Robigo and Sothis I saw three in the same system, I think Sothis but I could be mistaken.

Given that I'm just running a tourist scam for a bit I didn't detour to investigate.

Thank you again. Just found one in Dahan system. State is in Civil Unrest.
