All I want is hunting pirates and earn positive reputation to get permit and all I get is hostile reputation with feds and I don't know how, looks like reputation is pretty bugged, I hunt pirates and cops helping them against me, how can I increase my reputation now? or is it faster to start the game again? but I have already a cobra, but shoddy weapons and no money, cant even repair myself.
Reputation problem

Same here
I'd be interested in finding an answer to this too.
I jump out at an Unidentified Signal Source, scan any targets to check they're 'Wanted' and blow them away.
I get the bounties, I'm not marked as criminal for anything (i.e. no fines/illegal cargo etc.) but the Feds turn up, and start attacking. I flee rather than fight back so I don't get even worse rep but I'm now 'Unfriendly' to the Federation and struggling to get jobs on the bulletin board for them.
Bugged or are we doing something wrong :/

More complex reputation
I have played enough now to understand that simply shooting "wanted" craft will get you a bad reputation - it is more complex than that and you need to know which faction a "wanted" craft belongs to before you shoot it.
That said, is there a recommended path to restoring your reputation. I have done the trading of charts and black market good to "impress" but I seem to be getting nowhere fast.
Regards,

I have heard that doing charity missions will boost your reputation quickly. I did some on Founders World for the Pilot's Federation and was rewarded with a "friendly" status (I did quite a few cargo runs as well.) By charity missions I mean the ones where you give away food and goods for free / reputation gain.
Umm.. no. Shooting wanted crafts gets your rep up. Go out and shoot a few, go back to station and see did you get a red down arrow or green up arrow under the faction youre in..
It took me 25 'reputation gain' missions to get up to Neutral from Unfriendly: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=87272
