I was wondering if instead of just diminishing the rep hit by attacking fleets with your transponder off, would it be possible to outright nullify it, while the catch would be that your fleet would accumulate notoriety. If that fleet gets spotted with a transponder on by any member of the faction/s you have been attacking, they would identify you as the author of the crimes.
The way this would play out is that you'd have to change fleets in secrecy to another one that has a clean slate, and every ship you keep from the "notorious" fleet adds to the chance of getting found out. Similar to your black market suspicion, it would decay over time, meaning that you'd go into crime sprees here and there, and into hiding until things cool off.
If possible I think it would add an entire playstyle, making abandoned stations, and pirate/independent ports more useful.

eeeehhh, having to change fleets to make proper use of this would disincentivize using Smods quite a bit if you want to remain on positive standing

Sounds tedious if you ask me.
