If you are in Open expect any pledged enemy player to potentially attempt to blow you up on sight. Doesn't matter where, that is a thing. The pp groups are protective of their territory.
The PP Npc's have only shot at me when I was in enemy territory poking around in their signal sources looking for items from them so I can claim some merits. They went immediately hostile. Same for the stronghold systems with the new pp FC's.
Sounds like you plan to use solo or a private group and only go into regular bases and stations and stay away from the stronghold systems, and power play specific signal sources, I expect you would be fine. But there is only one way to find out, try it. I recommend a fast, cheap, armored ship with a little extra hull, and module armor, and have an exit strategy ready to go, no matter what you are doing.
I pledged one of my Alts, to check out pp2.0
