The case is closed as based on screenshot it could be indeed a mistaken tag.
If you have more evidence or similar cases in future from the same characters, please send me a private message, the thread will be open again.
Fixed the bug with hold optimization perk - now it affects only player ship on client side (as it works on server side).
The perk was not supposed to increase hold of fleet ships. Before the hotfix on client side their hold were affected by the perk thus in fact players overloaded fleet ships.
In case you have overloaded cargo with hold optimization perk (that might prevent overloading) and OW speed is still reduced - please hold on, the bug will be fixed tomorrow in a hotfix (the perk works as intended if you haven't fleet ship assigned)
Also, please check the recent patch notes, as ship overloading will result in OW speed reduction
Under investigation.
At the moment the perk does not work properly in case you have a fleet ship assigned. Without fleet ships the perk works as intended.
Determined defender works both in pvp and pve. The bug was not reproduced. Once it happens again, please make some screenshots (or video) with boarding
14% hostility was gained within Nassau Port window timer yesterday. The message you linked might be caused by technical issues on the server (both cases happened after server issues on July 13th and 23th)

Case is dismissed. Every nation has a guaranteed path to raise hostility via hostility mission system, but, in case attackers find a large OW NPC Fleet in a suitable spot, they can attack it to generate hostility as well. It can be used by every nation in the game.
