I had a discussion with Falcon a month or so ago where he simply ignored most of what people were saying with regards to the blackout changes, continued to push it publicly, and pretty much clapped on the blackout enthusiasts telling people to quit.
I've actually been talking quite a bit about the blackout with people on both sides of the fence.
Personally I like it for hunting purposes being pirate and all, but I can see the argument for there being no counterplay to have the same level of intelligence that's been in the game for the last sixteen years.
It's a super polarizing change for sure, and I do believe there needs to be an intelligence system in place, just not one that's as black and white as literally listing everyone in the system in a chat channel.
As with everything in EVE, you should have to work a little for your intel. Not being able to do so right now isn't optimal - I agree with that. Needs to be a middle ground.
Of course, anyone who disagrees with the blackout simply takes this as me frothing at the mouth and hating anyone who mines or does PvE.
