Now dear, if I didn't know better I would think you're insulting me on purpose! An ocean is large, sure, but still finite and far from overwhelming. Distance is relative to how quickly word travels; in my world, you can talk to people on the opposite side of the planet in seconds, trade knowledge and have them act as fast as if you'd been yelling at your neighbor over the fence. Distance means nothing when you have instant communication. Which we do here.

So, let's humor you and say that you come across an unsavory customer that stabs you in the back and runs off. Now what if there was some kind of group that was keeping tabs on all the other crews, which would quickly tip off any loyal parties on that individual's whereabouts? Don't you think that would discourage such actions from taking place?
