Since 1.4 has anyone been successful in evading a interdiction?
no matter the ship, Clipper, Courier, heck even a sidey.. have been utterly unsuccessful in evading them all of a sudden. Last one.. moving across to another station in a sidy to sell a ship.. interdicted by a flipping anaconda.. yeah that didn't go well but only cost me 9k

I tried to interdict a ship last night on the way back to base - no matter how close or far away I was, or where I was in relation to the ship it wouldn't start the tether - not did it tell me I needed to be behind it when I purposely offset myself to it's side... Bugged

I think I will refrain from carrying illegal cargo - I don't fancy being pulled out of SC by security forces and not standing a chance of escaping the interdiction

It seems to be bugged. I managed to avoid an interdiction up to the point where the interdictor lost its last bar, and then I was dropped out of SC anyway.

Almost exactly the same experience here. Almost never leaving the inner Counter Interdiction circle yet interdicted ... right at "escape bar" point. Oh and trying to submit to an interdiction in a Hauler taxi without additional SCs might have become a bad idea either. Almost got fried even though the FSD spooled up right after interdiction.
Space has become dangerous indeed! Kinda like it, though ... aside from the bugged part.

Smuggling has certainly got 'interesting', security ships are purposely targeting smugglers and I even had one chase me to an outpost and scan me as I was landing.

Have submitted and still had the FSD go long cool down.. and had a job for black boxes.. enroute to do it did a detour to get my Imp Eagle.. had at least 5 security ships say they were tipped off I was a smuggler and dicted then scanned. When I did the job I found a wrecked ship and legal salvage black boxes.. still was interdicted and searched 3 more times.. but never attacked.
Smuggling just got real...

Several guys on the FB Mobius page were talking about the issues with Interdictions as well. There have been several tickets entered for it, and FD is aware of the situation.
I guess I've been lucky.... I've done 3 smuggling missions for OoM today and interdicted 2 pirates without incident.
