Line 193:

There are huge trade hubs in Nullsec, but almost all stations are owned by alliances and are restricted to members of that alliance and their allies.

~~A notable exception have been~~ the Scalding Pass region~~, which had~~ several ''freeports'' <ref name=freeports>[http://www.themittani.com/news/scalding-freeport-zone The Mittani News Website on Freeports]</ref> (everyone is allowed to dock; there are no docking fees; and all services may be used). One of the first freeports has been opened by the alliance ''Phoebe Freeport Republic (PFR)'' at 4-CM8I VI - 4-C0EL0M8 4 LYFE (Scalding Pass). But free docking endangers the sovereignty in sov warfare, that's why its uncommon to open a station to the public in claimable nullsec.
