I'm shocked it's happening as quickly as it is. -- nm - spamlet Apr 19, 10:54 4
- Do ships have transponders so they can be found anywhere? I assume it's not as easy as finding planes on radar. - Max Apr 19, 11:06 2
  - Yes, there's a system called AIS so ships know what other ships are in their local area, and AIS signals can be tracked via satellite - Roger More Apr 19, 11:18
  - Your IM is basically it. A bunch of yachts left for Turkey and the UAE at the beginning of this because they tend to look the other way. - spamlet Apr 19, 11:09
- I’m assuming a lot of it is due to leaks of ownership information of shell companies, etc. (Panama Papers and suchlike) -- (edited) - znufrii Apr 19, 11:00
There’s a lot of things that would have needed to have already happened to be able to shut all of this down right away. - znufrii Apr 19, 10:51 1
- The entire shipping industry is multi layered obfuscation, flagged here, owned purportedly there, operated by another, insured from another -- nm - zeitgeist Apr 19, 11:14
